K-2 Curriculum Enrichment
The
following letter is used to inform parents of K-2 students who appear
to need curriculum enrichment based on observations by the classroom
teacher and the Gifted Specialist.
Dear Parents,
Your
child is recommended by current or past teachers to receive enrichment.
I work with students on a variety of math and language challenge
activities each week. I keep a record of each student's response to the
activities. I give feedback to the teacher periodically. Your child
may not necessarily participate each week. Please understand that this
is NOT a formal identification for the Academically or Intellectually
Gifted Program, rather, it is a way to enrich primary students whose
needs may vary from year to year.
Formal identification normally
begins in the third grade for those students who show a definite and
continuing need for curriculum differentiation.
Please call me at school (654-1800) Monday through Friday, if you have any questions about this service.
Jennifer Harmon, Academically or Intellectually Gifted Specialist
