Giftedness in the area of first language has not yet been scientifically researched more in detail. This specific giftedness can be observed in the linguistic and literal competences of students. As these competences are very important for many different professions, it is important to not only analyze them but to also develop them. The Language Drawer is a model that points out how these competences can be developed and what teachers or coaches need to help gifted students improve their competences. An important aspect of giftedness is creativity. As creativity proves helpful inproblemsolving in various contexts, especially in engineering science, but also in many other areas such as natural science, politics or economics, it is important for any gifted student to develop creative skills. Creativity can be observed in first language products, but it can also be developed by producing new language products. The language drawer offers various activties to develop student creativity.
