If anyone would like to share how they manage Pre-AP at middle school, I would love ideas.  I got a few good ones from CFB and El Paso.  I am trying to craft our plan and could use all the suggestions I can get.

Thanks!

I think we have to really promote it at Leadership and then at the annual conference.

 

I don't have a good plan for Pre-AP at middle school.  I like CFB's Pre-AP Potential they developed.  We don't do district-wide standardized testing (starting this year with 2nd grade) so we have less data to use then CFB, but I'm thinking of trying out what they use.

Maybe feedback and evals could go here after the conference? Then encourage tose who attend to start using it. ?

 

We are struggling with rigor just within PAP - let alone G/T in PAP. We are upping the ante on requiring training. We'll see.

 

Let's visit...:)

Great idea on the feedback and evals taking place through the TXGifted Cafe!  That would get people to the site and see it first-hand!

 

Rigor is an issue in all of part of what we do!  ugh!
