[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do you think the top kids in your class would benefit from a pull out gifted program or are you able to meet their needs in the classroom?[/quote]

For me, personally, I teach to the gifted student. However, when I came to DCPS I was appalled at their lack of focus/curriculum towards our gifted students. I still cannot fathom the idea that they do not even IDENTIFY let alone service students with gifted tendencies.  But what do I know? I'm just a teacher in the classroom with 10+ years experience and masters degree in the area to boot!   :P

Fortunately, because of my admin,[b] I have been able to introduce curriculum and/or gifted strategies [/b]to all of the students in my classroom. In my years of experience, the students will rise to your levels of expectations.  Sure, some students need specific scaffolding to help them attain certain content, but most students (at least in a JKLM school) are yearning for a challenge.[/quote]

Oh really? And what "curriculum" is that which you have introduced?[/quote]
