Session 3 - Question 3

This is the last session for our book study to blog as we will come together on Monday, 20 April, from 4:00pm – 5:00pm in room 275 to discuss the last chapters of our book. What has been your experience blogging? Would you encourage others to participate in this type of an on-line book study? Why or Why not?

Session 3 - Question 2

What were some personal “A-ha” moments while reading Chapters 9, 10, & 11? Give your reasoning, the page number(s), and examples to back-up your thoughts.

Session 3 - Question 1

The author defined persistence in numerous ways in Chapter 8. Site a quote or an example that had the most meaning for you and explain how it will affect your working with gifted students. (Don't forget to give page numbers.)

Session 2 - Question 4

A book study should help you generate new ideas for working with your students. Your reading might provide you positive reinforcement for things you've tried or help explain why things you're doing work. Your reading might help you tweak things or give you entirely new ideas to try. Based on your reading of chapters 5- 7, what things will you be tweaking or trying out for the first time? (Please give us page numbers so we can re-read those sections and think about how those passages have affected us.)

Session 2 - Question 3

Chapter 6 emphasizes the importance of humor in the classroom. How has humor added to your classroom environment?
