Gifted Week



This week is Gifted Week. What exactly is Gifted Week? It is raising awareness for gifted people. To me, being gifted means you think differently to other people. I am lucky that I get to go to Enrich. Here, I have more opportunities. I work with other people who are like-minded. This challenges me and makes me work harder.

The top model of giftedness is that of Joseph Renzulli. He says that you have to have above average ability, task commitment and creativity to be gifted. The second model of giftedness is that of Gagne. He says that you were born gifted and the things around you like your environment and positive and negative impacts, motivation and your personality will help you develop your talents. Gagne also says that with all of that, you need chance as well. I like Gagne's model of giftedness best. I was born in Invercargill and I had the chance to come to Enrich, which is helping me to develop my talents even further.
