What is the gifted service model like in your district?

I know money is relative but at what stage in your career did you start making and saving the big money (saving much more than you could spend)? I am not a big spender but....

Anyone Joined Orange business services recently???

I am trying to write a stock letter to send to parents everyday that their child does not come to virtual learning sessions. I have been told by administration that even though I have spoken to parents and know why students are not coming to zoom classes, that we still need to contact them everytime they dont come. For some of my students this is everyday due to parent work schedules and disability issues.
Is anyone else having this trouble? What are you saying to parents to cover yourself?

So, recently got put on a PIP after six months at my new job., two days after I told my boss and HR I recently learned I have a cognitive disability caused by an illness. The PIP was mostly because I forgot some deadlines, but also they said I need to be more professional in emails (even though others use zero punctuation and a lot of emojis. To clients.) and simultaneously ask more questions and ask fewer questions. Should I just assume this is unattainable and look for a new job again?

I keep starting huge projects or hobbies and being intensely into it for about 10 days/2 weeks, after which I forget about it and the project just lays around my house for months until I get interested in it again or I toss it out/donate it. It was fine when I was living alone but my partner is seriously frustrated with how messy the house gets and how much I spend on supplies for these things. How can I be less impulsive OR how can I stay motivated past the 10 day mark?? TIA

I’ve been dabbling with the idea of getting into copywriting as something to soon the side but I have no experience doing it. What steps should I take (books to read, gigs to start with or pursue, etc) if I want to go from $0 and next to ) experience to $40k or so a year?

Right now I’m currently unemployed and taking a break from my fine art stuff to try to get back into tech sales, but I was looking to expand my skill set and also generate extra money at the same time.

Does it seem crazy to you that gambling in most states is illegal but we can buy short term option contracts. It’s crazy I can’t go put $20 on Black at a casino but can buy 5k of a same day spy contract. 

Gifted ELA and art happen at the same time at my school. A student wants to attend the art class and do their online ELA work at another time. Both teachers are fine with that, but admin said "no!"
How can the student's giftedness and IEP modifications be used to defend the teachers' choice to admin?

Looking for some ideas -any subject but math in particular- for my 4th grade GT cluster. Also, what apps or technology do you find helpful? Thanks!

I teach gifted social studies in middle school. Anyone else working in a similar setting?

I started an Independent Study project with my students. They are 7 and 8 year olds. They chose their own topics...and holy cow! We have Nikola Tesla, Fibonacci, history of guitars, coding, etc.

I teach G&T 1st, 2nd, and 3rd grade. We are looking at the cogAT as a one form of ID, but cannot afford to test all of the students. Do you recommend testing some? At this age?

I am one of the GATE coordinators at our school. Curious if there’s any others and your role at your school!

We do an after school club. I'm looking for a good interest inventory to help direct our activities this year. Any recommendations?

Has anyone else’s Corp cut services to G/T because of the pandemic? Mine has, and I am absolutely heartbroken for the kids. They need services now more than ever. However they keep hiring SpEd positions and offering more services for SoEd students because they say the need is greater. How can the needs for one end of the spectrum be greater than the other? Without laws, what can we do to ensure gifted students get the education they need and deserve? Suggestions?

Does anyone use the William and Mary curriculum for language arts? Kendall Hunt for math?

I teach high school gifted math. In my program, our gifted students are in self-contained gifted classes. Those in the same scenario, do you teach with the same textbook and curricula as non-gifted?

Moving from regular education classroom to honors. Any tips?
