Our team will match you with an available certified trainer in your area. All workshops are provided at no cost to participating schools or districts.
Project EAGLE (Eliciting Advanced Gifted Learning Evidence) addresses the critical need for assessment systems that better identify missed talent. We tackle the issue of under identification, which leads to untapped talent, by implementing a dynamic approach to recognizing gifted behaviors. This approach empowers grade 3 through 5 teachers to use our Points of Promise observation checklist, designed to identify characteristics of mathematical potential and talent, as they observe and engage students in five problem-based math activities specifically crafted to elicit gifted behaviors.
Five trainers from each state of Arizona, Colorado, and Texas are now available to conduct NO COST workshops during the 2025-26 academic year. Workshop attendees receive 6 hours of training in the EAGLE approach, which includes identifying gifted math behaviors and SEI strategies. This may satisfy GT, ESL, or math training hours, depending upon district requirements and each attendee will receive a bound copy of the EAGLE lessons for classroom use!
