Anxiety and Depression

Disorders related to anxiety and depression are common in gifted learners and need consistent support in the classroom. 

Although anxiety & depression were discussed in the 2e part one course, we want to go a bit deeper and discuss how these issues can be supported in the classroom.

If anxiety and depression disorders are severe, they may fall under the umbrella of severe emotional disturbance (SED), but many cases that need support are not that severe. This is when the 504 plan can be utilized.
