5 out of 5 stars Teaching Gifted in the Regular Classroom   October 30, 2008
Great resource if you have gifted students in your regular ed classroom. There are many ideas to help differentiate the curriculum to meet their needs. I would recommend this book for gifted ed teachers who are consulting with regular ed teachers, as well as classroom teachers who need additional ideas.


5 out of 5 stars Awesome!   October 18, 2008
This is an excellent source for anything in differentiation. Lacks ideas in math concepts but has tons of ideas in writing and reading (literacy based). Enjoy!

Sadly, the students who will make the least progress during the school year are our gifted students. With all the energy that teachers spend trying to help our low-achieving students pass the ever more stressful mandated state tests, our high-achieving students can get left behind.

Winebrenner's wonderful resource can help teachers manage the wide range of ability levels in our classrooms, without spending every waking moment designing different lessons.

This should be in every teacher's classroom library. The strategies work with ALL students.

As a teacher in a regular classroom, I wanted some differentiated materials aimed at my GATE kids. My aim was to look and find out how to differentiate my lesson plans so that these gate kids can utilize their higher level skills. Maybe even take a normal lesson and extend it, fun things, and puzzles. However, the substance in the book was very sparse and I was thoroughly disappointed.
