Description

Practical strategies for the curriculum differentiation of gifted students. Make a Twist puts educational theory into practice, assisting educators and parents to identify and implement appropriate differentiation strategies for gifted students. Activities, aka ‘Twists’, are readily aligned with curriculum topics, assessment tasks, and student interests. Make a Twist is designed for upper primary to middle school students across all subject areas. The book can be used at hand during lessons to incorporate higher-order thinking challenges and for the creation of extended enrichment tasks. Make a Twist puts into practice the principles of June Maker’s curriculum modification strategies (the ‘Maker model’) in a way that is complex and challenging, therefore appropriate and engaging for high-ability students. “Make a Twist is a wonderful, totally practical way to put the principles in the Maker model into action in a classroom.” C. June Maker. Communication between parents and educators is enabled through use of Make a Twist. The book offers a tool for advocacy, presenting easy-to-use strategies for differentiating classroom practice and for supporting the learning of gifted children. Make a Twist is the perfect resource to enable educator action in all school gifted and talented programs.
