WBS AIG News
September 2013
Welcome Back!
Please consisder signing up for an AIG Academy this year. I have the schedule on my webpage. The attachment is a google doc so if you have difficulty opening the file please let me know.
This year the AIG program will be offering a new class on Journalism. The class is open to all students in grades 3-5 at WBS. During the Journalism class, students will learn various writing skills needed to create a school newsletter. Students will be given the opportunity to interview, write interest articles, take photos, and more. This class will only meet on Fridays to begin with. We may add another meeting time if needed. There will be more detailed information coming home soon.
As always ~ if you have any questions or concerns, please ask.
I am looking forward to working with all children at WBS!

Enrich, Extend and Accelerate
Service delivery is multifaceted and flexible and may consist of any of the following options:
· team teaching
· cluster grouping
· subject grouping
· resource units and/or classes
· cross grade grouping
· anchor activities
· curriculum compacting
· learning centers
· tiered assignments
· learning contracts
· computer based instruction
· independent study
Students who are performing above grade level may be pulled to work in a small group directly with the Gifted Specialist. A student does not have to be formally identified into the AIG Program to work directly with the Gifted Specialist.
