  2. Gifted Education Criterion -

  3. Goals: • Through differentiated instruction, based on both formal and informal assessments, students are able use higher order thinking skills. • Provide enrichment for the special needs of all students. • Opportunities for students with specific interests in a subject to pursue the domain further. • Students are able to work with his/her peers, promoting creative, academic, intellectual, social and emotional growth. • A safe, student centered environment where every child is guided towards their own personal growth.

  4. Guided Reading • Students will be grouped by current reading levels • Teaching strategies are discussed according to the needs of the group. • Students received leveled book readers in baggies at the beginning of the week. Don’t forget to log those books in. Any chance your child gets to read is wonderful! Write it down in the reading log! • Students will be retested after 4 to 6 weeks to assess for growth.

  5. Effective Grouping • Students will be grouped in every subject. • Students will be taught according to groups as well as whole class instruction. Students will work independently on tasks related to the lesson. • Homogeneous grouping can be effective too! Through metacognition, one can see how a student learns and retains information. When an abled student is working with a group as a peer teacher, she/he can explain his/her reasoning. High order thinking is taking place through this explanation of information.

  6. 1-211 High Fliers • Where as the other first grade classes are working on specific curriculum criteria, the children in this class will have more choice through project-based tasks, independent work/research, and an accelerated curriculum.
