This year I have the opportunity to work in a non-traditional classroom setting by working specifically with gifted and talented students. I absolutely love these curious, creative, impressive kids. The gifted curriculum is based on the regular classroom curriculum but provides opportunities for learning extensions and deeper thinking through the use of technology. Working in small groups, I talk with students about their interests and ideas, then guide them through their projects to ensure that it's standards based and accurate.
My role has a heavy technological component. Some of the applications I use include:
- Defined Stem
- Mango Languages
- Edmodo
- Google Classroom
- TinkerCad
- Code.org
- Khan Academy
- Powtoon.com
