#ohiogtchat is Sunday April 3rd at 9pm ET. 

As boredom is measured through our own internal scale, it can be difficult 
for others to acknowledge something that can be different for them. This 
measurement is dependent on each person's ability level, freedom to change 
circumstances, and understanding of any underlying conditions. In this 
#ohiogtchat we will explore Gifted Children and Boredom, how to identify 
what's going, and ways to advocate for change.
 
Q1) How do you interpret what a child means when he or she says "I'm 
bored."? Is this a straightforward plea, or is there an underlying issue 
that needs discovered?
 
Q2) What are the dangers of an ill-adapted educational setting for a 
gifted child?
 
Q3) As an educator, what can we do to reduce or eliminate boredom in our 
students?
 
Q4) What is some advice on advocating with the school to eliminate boredom 
in your child's educational setting?
 
Q5) Outside of the classroom, outside of school, can boredom be 
beneficial?

Our next chat is April 17: Overexcitabilities: We will be looking at the 5 
different OE traits and how they can effect gifted children. We will also 
discuss how we can help our gifted children navigate the world through 
OE. We are still looking for a featured guest for this chat who has 
experience working with gifted children with overexcitabilities. If you 
are interested please tweet @HeatherCachat or @jeff_shoemaker.
