| Abstract | In the field of gifted education, those identified as at risk may include student groups who have been historically underrepresented--among them those who are poor, minority, and/or culturally and linguistically diverse. Typically, the most at risk students are considered those in poverty. Living in poverty often limits equity, access, and opportunity as well as basic life experiences that many people take for granted. Matters are further compounded when the student also comes from a home where a language other than English is spoken. The cases presented in this article represent gifted students, from different environments, with whom the author has worked. One of the most perpetuated myths in the education of gifted children is that they can make it on their own because they are so smart. This is far from the truth, especially for gifted students who live in poverty, are non-English or limited English proficient, and who reside in a rough part of town. Many of them exist in a world of conflict and contradiction and are put in situations where navigating every day challenges is difficult and demanding. The author suggests strategies for helping these students. (ERIC). |
