The document describes an integrative education model for gifted children with 7 key components: 1) a responsive learning environment, 2) relaxation and tension reduction, 3) movement and physical encoding, 4) empowering language and behavior, 5) choice and perceived control, 6) complex and challenging cognitive activity, and 7) intuition and integration. The model focuses on the learning process and giving students tools to become successful and responsible learners by addressing their physical, emotional, and cognitive development through brain-compatible strategies.
