GATE & SEMINAR PROGRAM AT GRANT

For information about this topic Please refer to this link from Grant School.
The San Diego Unified School District provides this link about the program.

It is important to me that my Seminar program includes, but is not limited to, the following attributes.
  • Precocity,
  • Intensity,
  • Complexity,
  • Advanced comprehension,
  • A faster pace of learning,
  • An ability to handle greater depth and complexity, pace or presentation,
  • Differentiation in content, process, product and learning environment,
  • Levels of abstraction, complexity, and depth must be greater than those provided by the core curriculum.
  • The pace of learning altered to accommodate students' needs.
  • While students must master the core curriculum, the amount of time and number of repetitions required for learning must be compacted based on teachers' assessment of how the students learn and what they already know.
  • Instructional processes are adapted to students' abilities to work with abstract ideas, to generalize, and to make complex relationships within and across the disciplines.
