My students are identified as academically or intellectually gifted. They show the potential to academically perform above average to substantially higher levels of accomplishment when compared with others of their age or experience.
Academically or intellectually gifted students require differentiated educational services beyond those ordinarily provided by the regular educational program.
They possess the ability to think with more complexity and abstraction and learn at a faster rate; therefore, they require challenging, differentiated curriculum and instruction which are developmentally appropriate and will prepare them for the future.
When an appropriately differentiated education is not provided, gifted learners do not thrive in school and their potential is diminished.
My Project
Honors English is a building ground for students as they prepare for future success. In order for students to obtain technology skills, they must have regular access and exposure to various forms of technology. We lack computers in our classroom for individual student use which can be used to enhance student learning.
Purchasing two Chromebooks for our classroom would greatly benefit the students, the school, and the community.
The use of this technology will provide students with the additional skills they will need in order to compete in the twenty-first century and help meet the needs of diverse learners.
These devices will allow students to interact with instruction, complete research writing projects, and learn to use various technology tools to solve problems and think critically.
