Smart in the Middle Grades: Classrooms That Work for Bright Middle Schoolers

by Carol Ann Tomlinson, Kristina Doubet

Every so often a book comes along that is particularly useful, timely, and very well-written. This is such a book. The authors, experienced middle level teachers and recognized experts in gifted education, write with a flair and passion about bright middle schoolers and those with unrecognized potential. Authors Tomlinson and Doubet provide a solid rationale for meeting the needs of all young adolescents, guidelines for a curriculum that is responsive to the diversity that all middle level teachers encounter, and a wonderfully rich set of instructional strategies especially appropriate for high ability and high potential students.

OK, I finally read this, and it's not so bad. Tomlinson always has an interesting perspective on what's going on in the classroom.
