School is not just about connecting kids with curriculum. It’s about connecting kids to the world. Showing them they matter. Encouraging them to embrace their own uniqueness while they embrace the uniqueness of others. It’s about working together to make the world a better place. Connecting can be chatting over lunch, a field trip to another city, or even a Skype call with a class in another country. Connecting to learn. Connecting to understand.
Below are links and resources from my session at Texas Association for Gifted and Talented where I had the fun of sharing “Global Connections for Gifted Learners.” Check it out and get your class connected today.
