  29. Cortni – BURLESON ISD (verified owner)

    I took this quiz to understand my fiance more. He is adhd and gifted. There are a lot of things that I noticed he does that are hard for me to understand. Now that I taken this course I can understand a lot of the ways he thinks and feels about school. This course can also help me think of my students in a different light. I can now understand how to identify a student as either gifted or adhd or both.
