Description
A centers approach to teaching offers gifted students autonomy, choice, and differentiation in ways that challenge and stretch them individually. In this course, Erin Muck shares how she uses a centers approach in her language arts classroom with the goal of helping you make it work in your classroom.
The centers approach Ms. Muck uses and developed herself is called “The READ System.” She will walk you through the following:
- The power and advantages of using centers in your classroom
- Examples of what centers might look like in your classroom
- The specific benefits of using centers with your gifted students
She covers classroom setup, classroom organization, and demonstrates stations in action.
This course meets National Association for Gifted Children Teacher Preparation Standards 1.2, 2.1, and 2.1, as well as Ohio Department of Education competencies a, b, and c.
