My Project

As a gifted teacher, I have seen how quickly students can expand their minds with a little additional assistance. The students at CE are fighting circumstances beyond your wildest imaginations, but they still show up excited and ready to learn. These students are special student who should be given the tools to truly be the future of our worlds.

Students will be exposed to a richer and more supportive learning environment with these resources.

The requested materials will be used to help prep and train students for creative problem- solving based learning. Students will have opportunities to explore book series, build their understanding of Gifted tests like NNAT and Cogat. They will even have opportunities to be given rewards for the amount of effort and dedication they put in each day.

Giftedness is developmental and can occur in all populations when nurtured appropriately. These tools will help highlight awareness of he unique needs of gifted learners. Students will be exposed to a richer and more supportive learning environment.
