[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 433792, member: 11791"] Extension work doesn't need to be in the direct subject area. We had a really great teacher one year - split grade class, whole range of kids (from ESL to various disabilities to gifted). She figured out early on that there were 3 kids who were both gifted and responsible... When they were caught up in their work, they could choose between... tutoring other kids (example: flashcards for ESL students), or prep work for the class (mixing up paints, making sure the crayon boxes had enough colors, etc.), OR going to the library to work on their "challenge project". They learned leadership, patience, and a raft of other skills, in addition to some academic challenge. See if you can get them thinking outside the box! [/QUOTE]
