population”On chart paper list as many groups that fit

the term as possible in the next 2 minutes.

Let’s create a Master List.We will need 2 recorders.Each table will call out one item from

their list.We will take items until all items are

listed.

As you watch the video:

Are there any changes or additions that can be made to the Master List?

Recorders please add any additions to the Master List.

Gifted learners come from culturally, linguistically, economically diverse (CLED) populations.

Using a jigsaw approach, we will learn more about the interaction between giftedness and specific special population groups.
