because of the high expectations that they are not able to accomplish. These students have a high
incidence of disruptive behavior probably due to the inability to find true peers due to the
difficulty of fitting in with gifted students or their learning disabled peers. So this group of
students needs positive social support from teachers and parents for positive socio-emotional
development.
To be an effective teacher for students with exceptionalities one must look at all the sides
of the coin. These children need help fitting in and feeling good about themselves. In the case of
twice exceptional students it is the job of educators to take in the social portion of a students
development along with their educational development in order to create an optimal plan for the
twice-exceptional. In the case of all exceptional students parents should be educated in both their
childs limitations and their abilities so as not to lower their self perception by either not being
believed in or held to too high of standards this is especially so for twice exceptional students.
