About Seller

Jazzy Jack-o'-lanterns is a creative, fall activity originally designed for gifted & talented children, but clearly appropriate for all students. Intended to promote originality as one of the 4 traits of gifted children (fluency, flexibility, elaboration & originality), I have used it extensively with heterogeneous classes. The results are always surprising and extraordinary. Distribute the assignment sheet 1 week before the due date and send it home. This activity provides an easy home-school connection.

This is a wonderful replacement for traditional show & tell in that it gives the students a purpose and focus for their sharing time.

Included in this set are general directions, an assignment sheet, notes to the teacher, and a participation certificate. If you like Jazzy Jack-o'-lanterns, look for more activities like it in my product, Destination Imagination

TEACHING EXPERIENCE

Grades Taught:

Pre-K, Kindergarten, First, Second, Third, Fourth, Fifth, Higher Education, Staff

Subject Area:

For All Subjects, Gifted and Talented, Critical Thinking

For more than 3 decades, I have taught everything from K to 5, G/T to Reading Recovery, and enrichment to Title I. It was my privilege to develop & co-author a district model for gifted/talented education for 2 districts and to develop & implement a system for mentoring young gifted children with experts in their areas of interest. As an education specialist at the U of IL, I developed differentiated curriculum and evaluation tools for gifted students and lectured graduate classes in G/T. Additionally, I have guest lectured at the local community college and IL State Univ. Reading Recovery training, while rigorous and demanding, has improved every aspect of my teaching. The training has made me a better observer and problem solver. The richness of my experiences allows me to be a versatile and expansive developer of curricula.
