This document summarizes a Day 1 activity sheet used in a professional learning session. The activity sheet included a QR code linking to a pre-assessment survey to collect participant data. Participants were then instructed to discuss with a neighbor their existing knowledge of gifted learner characteristics and times they may have witnessed students struggling from these traits. The goal of the discussion was to engage participants and get them thinking about the session's focus of increasing understanding of gifted learner traits.

Owner/Creator Author/Meredith Tongue Site Found Microsoft Forms and Author Created Description of Item Content This sheet was given to participants to open the PL session on Day 1. The QR Code on the sheet linked to the pre assessment survey so that that data could be easily attained from the participants. Then participants were instructed to talk with a neighbor regarding their existing knowledge of the characteristics of gifted learners and any instances they had witnessed of their students having difficulties due to these characteristics. This was somewhat of a “warm- up” activity to get conversation and learning going from the outset. Relation to Goals/Significance The significance of the data was described above. The discussion was meant to spur engagement and to get my participants thinking about the content related to my goal of increasing knowledge of characteristics of gifted learners. I also hoped that some of the veteran teachers could contribute to the learning by sharing episodes they had witnessed involving their gifted students. These relate directly to my first goal. Acquisition Challenge Level Meredith helped with the QR Code, and I knew 1=Easy; 5=Difficult what I wanted to get people talking about. This one was not hard. Rating=1
