I post a lot of special education articles and ideas for working with struggling students on my tumblr.

But what about Gifted students?   They also deserve a free and appropriate education.

In Ohio, we are only required to identify gifted students — not actually do anything with them once we find them.  Most districts do have gifted programs, but when money gets tight they are some of the first cuts to be made.

I think this article provides some good starting points and definitions when it comes to gifted students.  

I’ll be on the look out to find more to share soon.

What does your state/district do for gifted students?
