IAN BYRD - PARENT RESOURCES
Consider visiting byrdseed.com. Ian Byrd is an advocate for gifted learners and has vast resources for teachers and parents. I follow him on twitter and visit his Byrdseed site and Byrdseed TV often to enrich my classroom.
Below is a link to his keynote address a few years ago, in which he reflects on his own experience as a GT learner.
