Providing gifted services for culturally diverse middle school students can present a challenge. This session presents one school’s NonVerbal Honors Core, a program for gifted and talented students identified on the Naglieri NonVerbal Ability Test. Teachers hold bilingual/ELL and gifted certifications. The teaching team incorporates an integrated, thematic approach in designing their instructional units of study and a project-based approach for implementation. This combination provides a culturally rich, highly engaging learning environment that embraces, encourages, and challenges gifted students of diverse populations. Presenters share sample instructional units, teaching methods and schedules, along with data examining program development and academic achievement.
