		<title>Prints are Precious</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Some of you make think that this post is part of a master plan to get you to do something with those old photographs. Hardly. Actually, I try to read the magazine Shutterbug. I say, try, because it can get pretty technical. However, I just finished an article titled, &#8220;Prints are Precious: Or, in Praise [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I take part in the #gtchat conversations on Twitter as often as I can. Deborah Mersino at Ingeniosus is doing a wonderful job bringing up and orchestrating topics that affect gifted children and their parents worldwide.

		<title>If we identify gifted, we must support them</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I was recently asked by a Twitter pal @Incipi if I had a recommended book list for gifted issues. I don&#8217;t yet but that could be another good summer professional project. Meanwhile, visit SENG&#8217;s website or Hoagie&#8217;s Gifted for for some great recommendations. Right now, I&#8217;m reading Social-Emotional Curriculum with Gifted &#038; Talented Students by [...]]]></description>

		<title>Summer professional development projects</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been thinking about my summer professional development projects since I recently visited Clif&#8217;sNotes. At the end of the every school year while I&#8217;m clearing off my desk, taking down my bulletin boards (and this year preparing to move to a new classroom), I think about the projects I could do over the summer to [...]]]></description>

		<title>Great Quote!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;Most teachers waste their time by asking questions which are intended to discover what a pupil does not know whereas the true art of questioning has for its purpose to discover what the pupil knows or is capable of knowing.&#8221; ~ Albert Einstein]]></description>

		<title>The importance of working hard is no small matter in the GT world</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I came across a very detailed conversation recently in one the Gifted MailLists I follow. I&#8217;ve only included a portion of the conversation here. I&#8217;ve had experiences teaching both those who strive and achieve regardless of the &#8216;gifted&#8217; label and those who languish with the label. There are so many variables from cultural motivations to [...]]]></description>

		<title>When was the last time you thought about your educational philosophy?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Recently, I was asked to prepare my educational philosophy for an application. The last time I wrote down my educational philosophy was during my undergraduate degree program. Since then, I&#8217;ve focused on the education of the gifted child and taught five years. Yep, things had changed; my knowledge and experience in the classroom required me [...]]]></description>

		<title>&#8220;Does that make me gifted?&#8221;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The question came up during a twitter conversation I had with @shareski lately. Which started me thinking about this entry because it is also a question I get frequently in casual conversations with other educators, family and friends. What motivates someone to ask that question? One theory I have is that my friends, family and [...]]]></description>
