The article authors believe that the giftedness of children can be determined and studied in the process of training and education only, as well as during the performance one or another meaningful activity by the child. The contributors come to the point that for successful work with the gifted child the school is obliged to find its strengths and give the opportunity to the child to show it, to get a taste of success and believe in its own capabilities.
