I really enjoyed the specific focus on metacognition and how that is a challenge for TAG students. I think the course description could’ve included the fact that a lot of it was focused on ELA specifc strategies such as Literature Circles and book studies. However, the Math component of Non-Standard Word Problems was fantastic! I’m sure there are ways I can implement pieces of the ELA components into my teaching still. Really liked all the ideas of resources available for both kids and teachers.

The course was more geared towards ELA content, so it was somewhat difficult to connect to the “regular classroom,” or in particular, the math classroom.

It was beneficial. It would have been nice to have more of a math connection.
