A.1.+Observational+Visits

During my practicum experience, I visited three other gifted education classrooms at the middle school level. I visited Mountain Brook Junior High, Hewitt-Trussville Middle School, and McAdory Middle School. At each school I interviewed the gifted specialist about their program design and was able to observe how they are implementing various instructional practices with gifted learners. I then wrote a reflective paper comparing and contrasting the three settings I observed. home
