Nine Gifted Ed Resources

Nine links to inspire you and improve your classroom:

  1. OnlineDegrees.org lists the top ten gifted education blogs. No, Byrdseed.com didn’t make it, but I did show up in the comments 🙂
  2. As you’ve no doubt picked up, I love wordplay. PunOfTheDay.com is a great site to help your class start playing with words.
  3. An interview with Dr. Carol Tomlinson about differentiated instruction, from EducationWorld.com.
  4. From Point Of Inflection, an article on assigning explicit roles in group work.
  5. A flow chart for creating a tiered activity.
  6. Interesting article on using “would you rather” questions to develop critical thinking and promoting well-justified answers.
  7. A great set of graphs showing us how to kill interest with powerpoint. Important for teachers as well as students.
  8. A massive collection of ideas for teaching math, organized by subject. Most useful for 7 – 12 teachers, but I found some helpful links.
  9. Finally, an LA Times article about San Francisco’s new law on toys in Happy Meals. Think of all the ways to use this article: introducing “vetoes,” identifying multiple perspectives, calculating calories in a meal, setting up a debate, or discussing whether the headline is misleading.
