The Teacher Planning Guide, found in an appendix, can help create a plan that will promote optimum development for each gifted child. Mentorship and Internships Teachers, counsellors, librarians, other students, parents and community resource people can become mentors. The relationship with a mentor can help the student move to a new level of understanding of a discipline. It is a unique opportunity for students to learn how experts in their field of interest go about their work. Internships can help the student experience the reality of work in a specific field.
Mentors can provide stimulation and support beyond the classroom to highly gifted students.
They allow the student to move ahead in an area of passion while working with peers at other times.
