Very few students fit perfectly within the normal distribution curve in all aspects of their academic and personal life. Yet, we owe each of our students an engaging and challenging educational experience that recognizes their strengths and areas of exceptionality. Students whose abilities or talents lie in the far ends of the range of abilities often are overlooked in planning for the majority of students.

First, I share some of the traits and characteristics of highly able students and highly talented students. I will provide some tools and metrics to assist teachers and staff in identifying, supporting, and enriching the talents of those exceptional students . The social and emotional intricacies of highly able students will be discussed.

Lastly, and time dependent, we will engage in some lesson revision, highlighting some ways to bring rigor and challenge to the highly able students in our classroom, utilizing AI and questioning strategies.

Teachers will leave the workshop with a better understanding of the needs and challenges of highly able students and will have some tools to provide some appropriate and challenging academic experiences.
