This video is an outstanding resource for preschool providers, parents and early childhood specialists. Learn how to nourish and develop the genius in the very young child.

Observe firsthand how Dr. Thomas Armstrong's beliefs are put into practice in schools. Explore how learning environments based on the world renowned Montessori approach nurture the genius in children. Virginia McHugh, Executive Director of Association Montessori International/USA, contributes her easily implemented ideas and helps to profile schools that take a creative and unconventional approach to developing student's gifts and in raising student achievement and performance. Based upon his best-selling book, Awakening Genius in the Classroom (published by ASCD), this video features Thomas Armstrong as he explores the history associated with genius, and debunks the narrow but widely held belief that genius is solely a function of performing well above average in tasks that require academic skills.

Dr. Armstrong believes that there is genius in every child and it is our responsibility to discover and awaken it. He then identifies those negative influences in our environments that prevent the genius from revealing itself in children, and discusses those factors that awaken and nurture this genius, that enhance its growth and development.

  • Be able to identify those negative influences that can prevent genius from being revealed
