Though nearly 5 million students can be characterized as gifted and talented in the United States, many exceptional learners "fly under the radar." Because they are not appropriately challenged in the general classroom, they never meet their full potential--in school or in life.

Learn how to
recognize the challenges of each child,
identify the five unexpected traits of exceptional learners, and
adjust your teaching to meet the needs of all learners.
Filled with useful strategies and poignant personal accounts, this book gives you the "meat" of what you need to prevent those students who need to be challenged and engaged from slipping through the cracks.
