Please don’t read from the power point! This is also very dated if he is talking about TAKS.

There was a lot of good information in this presentation, but the presenter talked pretty fast and sometimes it was hard for me to follow him. I feel like he could have left out some of his side stories and focused on the important points and maybe slowed it down a little bit. But, overall, I really enjoyed learning about these twice exceptional learners.
