FOR GIFTED MINDS (Students)
Hi Gifted Students (old and new)!
The plan for this page will expand over time. For now, there will be links to some of the best sites I know for the gifted student in grades 3-6. Enjoy! And drop me a note to let me know of any good links to add in the future (teachagiftedkid@gmail.com)
These two sites offer something to keep the mind entertained. The first uses audio and video clips (some provided by the History Channel) to quiz your knowledge of history: Time Lord http://timelord.waidev5.com/ The other is just plain fun to do and learn how to type at the same time: http://www.addictinggames.com/keymaster.html
Nevada’s Writing Project site offers some great Writing Games for young writers. I hope you enjoy! http://www.writingfix.org/
