4 Gifted Assessment How do you know my child met the criteria?

5 An exceptional child is defined as: a pupil whose behavioural, communication, intellectual, physical or multiple exceptionalities are such that he or she is considered to need placement in a special education program by committee.

6 Possible Placements PrIDE Program for Individual Development and Enrichment

7 Definition Giftedness is defined as an unusually advanced degree of general intellectual ability that requires differentiated learning experiences of a depth and breadth beyond those normally provided in the regular school program to satisfy the level of educational potential indicated. Ministry of Education and Training

8 Characteristics of the Gifted Learner Advanced cognitive ability Intellectual curiosity Sensitivity and creativity Motivation Advanced affective capacity

9 Program The gifted program is based on the Ontario Curriculum. In order to meet the learning strengths, interests and needs of the gifted learner, the program is differentiated by: Depth Breadth Pace Kind

10 Elements of the Partially Integrated Core Gifted Program There may be combined grades in the gifted program York Region District School Board does not accelerate students Curriculum is based on provincial curriculum by grade level which is differentiated to meet the needs of the students in the class

11 Elements of the Partially Integrated Core Gifted Program The Ontario Curriculum is differentiated for gifted students in order to: 1. Ensure that the expected level of achievement is demonstrated 2. Provide learning experiences at an appropriate cognitive level 3. Provide students with the learning and thinking tools to allow them to maximize their learning potential 4. Match instruction and environment with student learning styles

12 What Specific Skills are Taught in the Gifted Program? Thinking Skills: Creative Thinking, Critical Thinking, Bloom s Taxonomy (knowledge, comprehension, application, analysis, synthesis, evaluation) Independent Study: Inquiry/research and decision-making processes to pursue an area of study which extends learning of a class based theme or an area of personal interest

13 What Specific Skills are Taught in the Gifted Program? Negotiated Learning: Students participate in the process of cooperative planning of learning activities and products which demonstrate learning of overall and specific expectations Social Emotional Domain: Students understand their own academic, social and emotional strengths and needs and use them to set personal goals

14 Inquiry Approach and Research Skills in both PrIDE and Partially Integrated Focus on inquiry as process for: exploring, developing, and applying understanding of a concept or big idea (teaching through problem solving); guiding students through the development of inquiry or problem-solving processes and strategies (teaching about problem solving) and connecting and integrating ideas across the curriculum.

15 Elements of the PrIDE Program One day a week with a focus on: Thinking Skills Inquiry Based Independent Study Research Skills PrIDE Entry Points There are 2 entry points to the PrIDE program during the school year: The beginning of September and beginning of February.

16 If my child is in French Immersion, can he/she attend a Gifted Program? French Immersion is an optional program available to all children; however, parents should be aware that they must decide if they wish their son or daughter to: remain in the FI program; return to their community school (English Program) for access to the PrIDE program; or be placed in the Partially Integrated Core Gifted program at a designated school.

17 Myths There will be more homework in the gifted program. A learner who is gifted should expect to receive Level 4 (A) in all subjects. A learner who is gifted is smarter than others in the school. A learner who is gifted experiences greater success only when surrounded by other learners who are gifted. The learner who is gifted should be accelerating to higher grade level work.

18 Summary 1. Your child has been identified as gifted. 2. You have 3 choices: a. Remain at in the existing program/school with or without a gifted identification b. Part-time 1 day PrIDE program (for students in English program only) c. Fulltime Gifted program at designated Community Class school. So what happens next..

19 Identification, Placement and Review Committee (IPRC) In accordance with Regulation 181/98 the IPRC: decides if the student is exceptional decides the placement identifies the category and definition of the exceptionality describes the student s strengths and needs

20 IPRC Review Must be held at least once in each school year Parents may dispense with the annual review The student s progress is considered with respect to his/her IEP

21 Individual Education Plan (IEP) Required for all students identified by an IPRC as exceptional Must be developed in consultation with parents Must be developed within 30 days of placement into the program Parents must receive a copy Is included in the OSR

22 IEP IEPs must include: specific educational expectations for the student an outline of the special education program and services a statement of the methods of reviewing progress

23 Transportation Bussing is provided to BOTH the Partially Integrated Core Gifted and PrIDE Programs. After mid August 2016, parents can confirm transportation arrangements by accessing the Student Transportation Services website at This will provide you with the pick up/drop off times and locations.

24 Transportation Bussing is provided in accordance with school board policy and will adhere to the following guidelines: Students who live the furthest from school often have the longest ride times In many situations, students can experience longer ride times to and from school than students in the regular program

25 Transportation Ride times will not exceed 60 minutes unless under exceptional circumstances All students will be assigned to a centrally designated corner bus stop Elementary students can be expected to walk up to 400 metres to a central bus stop location
