gifted and talented primary school pupil in an inclusive classroom

abilities. The book has sections on: - creating a working environment
that helps more able pupils to thrive; - varying the way you ask
pupils questions; - thinking about multiple intelligences and ways to
develop them; - developing different levels of challenge in classroom
activities; - allowing pupils some choice in the activities they do; -
advice on how to run whole-class research projects. A glossary of key
terms and a range of photocopiable material are included. Class
teachers, GATCOs, Teaching Assistants, Learning Support Teachers,
trainee teachers and LEA advisers looking for practical teaching ideas
to challenge gifted children will find this book ideal for use in
their settings.
