    A great presentation. There are many creative ideas to help teachers.

  6. Emily – DRIPPING SPRINGS ISD (verified owner)

    Great course, but seems a little outdated. I loved all the examples for how to differentiate for gifted learners, but most seemed tailored to higher grades. I teach primary and found that I consistently had to think about how to change these ideas to fit and work for primary learners.

    I am walking away with great resources to use this school year!

  8. Jaime – MANOR ISD (verified owner)
