Recorded On: 05/29/2025
Grade Level: Early Childhood | K-5
Content Level: Introduction to Topic
Through a three-year Javits grant, a university-school district partnership developed and implemented district-wide K-2 enrichment lessons paired with teacher-observation strategies to identify high-potential students from historically underserved groups. These activities transform teachers' perceptions and engage students in higher-order thinking without relying on literacy or numeracy. This session shares field-tested lessons and strategies for equitable identification and systemic talent development services.
