I have added a link on the "Links" page for the New Jersey Association for Gifted Children.
Their Web site is http://www.njagc.org/index.php. This is an excellent place for parents to
begin learning more about gifted children, and what resources are available for them. I
encourage you to take a look at this resource.
Here is a link to Scholastic Book's site, where you can list your grade level or topic, and it
will give you your own suggested reading list!
For those
4 TAG students who would like to see their HyperStudio projects at home, you may print

Verbal students can find reading lists on the Photos/Docs page.
For those who want to find out more about Gifted Education, I have added a link on the "Links"
page to the University of Connecticut's NEAG Center for Gifted Education.
