Nature and needs of gifted students

    Documentary Film Viewing

    Students will write a 4-5 page paper synthesizing one common theme across the films. For example, what supports the development of potential? What are varied profiles of giftedness? What nonintellective factors support or impede the realizations of giftedness?
