Back Cover -3- -4- Igniting and Nurturing Potential “You may encounter many defeats, but you must not be defeated. In fact, it may be necessary to encounter the defeats, so you can know who you are, what you can rise from, how you can still come out of it.” ~Maya Angelou Welcome Friends of the Gifted, to the 2015 PAGE State Annual Conference, Gifted Education: Igniting and Nurturing Potential. On behalf of the PAGE board and members of the conference committee, I would like to welcome you to this year’s conference. Learn the latest theories and expand your knowledge base so that you can more effectively support the needs of gifted and advanced learners. Thursday’s half-day sessions will help you to navigate the waters of screening and identification to turning responsive instruction on its head, and to enrich the depth and complexity of core content areas. Come and learn how to unlock the myth surrounding SLOs (Student Learning Outcomes) and how SLOs can be used to support instruction. Learn all about unlocking your students’ superpowers through coding and how to effectively integrate games and simulations into your classroom. Thursday evening’s mini-conference offers an array of sessions on varying topics. Learn about the new WISC V, strategies on supporting the 2E learner, the gifted child with Asperger, and ten simple tips to help you encourage the gifted adolescent to be independent, confident, and happy. The sessions on Friday are divided into 4 strands. The Assessment and Identification strand will provide attendees with a close up look at the WISC V, insights on the ins and outs of developing an acceleration policy, how to utilize PVASS data, PLEPs, Round Table discussions on some of the current hot topics in gifted education, and more. Curriculum and Instruction sessions will cover developing critical thinking skills in the areas of math and science, the implementation of a Paideia seminar, close reading and text analysis, and RTII. Learn how the i-Ready tool can help you pinpoint students’ levels in gifted planning. Our third strand is Counseling and Guidance and includes sessions to explore the 16 Habits of Mind, the Educator Dashboard Early Warning System, and how to empower gifted girls to reach their potential. Learn about the redesign of the SAT and PSAT/NMSTS and explore college planning options for gifted. The fourth strand focuses on gifted services with sessions to ignite and nurture the partnership between the gifted and general education classroom. Explore the 20 collaboration and communication programs/apps to help promote active student learning. You can also update yourself on the current legal issues on gifted education law. Be sure to stop in at the “Zone” for one of the many 20 minute sessions and don’t forget to purchase raffle tickets for one of the many raffle baskets; the proceeds of which go towards the student scholarships that are awarded at the conference. Seize the opportunity to make meaningful connections by reconnecting with familiar faces and making the acquaintance of new ones.

She also currently writes a popular blog about giftedness, Gifted 15 Challenges (www.giftedchallenges.com), and consults with families of gifted children. Gifted girls often mask their abilities in an attempt to fit in, achieve popularity, and adapt to a feminine ideal. Many downplay their strengths and make academic and career choices that limit their potential. This presentation will address: 1) the social, cultural, and school-based factors that influence girls' choices, 2) the emotional conflicts that result, and 3) how families and schools can help them make informed, confident decisions based on their unique needs rather than socialcultural pressures. An overview of the research, clinical examples, and strategies for empowerment will be offered. Multi-Tiered Systems of Support (MTSS) formerly known as RtII and the Advanced Learner Room 205 Presenter: Dr. Christine S. Lay, Gettysburg Area School District Room 115 Assistant Superintendent With the addition of the growth model data in Pennsylvania (PVAAS) and the PA Teacher Effectiveness System that includes building level, teacher, and elective data, it has become evident that our proficient and advanced learners are not always making a year's worth of growth. The MTSS framework is a data driven, early intervention strategy designed to improve student achievement. Though first applied to struggling learners, it became evident this process could be replicated with advanced learners. Dr. Lay will outline how the components can be adjusted to improve advanced learners' achievement and how that is progressing in Gettysburg School District. The system is now three years into implementation and is moving into the Middle School with a plan for cluster grouping. Early Warning Dashboard Presenter: Sally Flaherty, Pennsylvania Education Room 203 Department of The Educator Dashboard Early Warning System and Intervention Catalog is a free tool available for all Local Educational Entities (LEA) within the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. The Department of Education is providing a tool which will support increased graduation rates, student achievement and strengthening community partnerships. This session will highlight how the Dashboard Early Warning System/Intervention Catalog applies to gifted students. Rates of Acquisition and Retention: What Are They? Why Are They Important? How Do We Measure Them? Room 119 Presenter: Dr. Michael T. Paff is a faculty member in the Room 115 Department of Psychology at Iona College in New Rochelle, NY. Prior to joining the faculty at Iona, he was a school psychologist for the Penncrest School District in Saegertown, PA. As a school psychologist, he was responsible for conducting student gifted evaluations and also worked closely with the district's gifted support staff and special education department to overhaul the district's gifted student identification and placement procedures. This presentation will discuss how the concepts of Rate of Acquisition and Retention developed and why they are so important to assessing and educating gifted students. Two methods of assessing ROA/R will be examined. One method, the Modified Chuska Scale (MCS), is an adaptation of the Chuska Scales published by PDE in the Gifted Guidelines. The other is a performance assessment called Instructional Assessment using Incremental Rehearsal (IAIR). Concrete implications for screening and evaluation of gifted students, as well as taking ROA/R into account when programming, will be discussed. The presentation will include lecture as well as demonstration and simulation of the IAIR technique. 16 ZONE Room 218 As an alternative to missing an entire session, we are offering the ZONE at regular intervals for participants to split their time between vendors and shorter sessions. The schedule is below and presenters will be (in most cases) joining us via a remote location. Come check us out. TIME 8:05-8:25 PRESENTER Joan Gillis, PA Statewide Lead for MDC. SESSION Math Design Collaborative - The Mathematics Design Collaborative (MDC) brings high-quality instructional tools and professional support services to mathematics education. The aim is to bring to life the Common Core State Standards and support teachers in understanding what the Math Practices look and sound like when put into action. We provide teachers with Formative Assessment Lessons (FALS) to engage students in a productive struggle that builds fluency with their procedural skills and deepens mathematical reasoning and understanding. These free resources have been developed by University of Nottingham and University of California Berkeley with support from the Gates Foundation. They are supported by the Mathematics Assessment Project. (http://map.mathshell.org) One teachers comment after using FALS in her classroom: “I realized that my students were capable of a much higher level of thinking than I was giving them credit. As I have turned into more of the facilitator in the classroom, my students are now reasoning in ways that I had never imagined.” ~Amanda C., geometry teacher 8:35-8:55 Shawn Lochinger, Gifted Hearing Office for Pennsylvania 10:50 – 11:35 Dr. Ann Lupkowski Shoplik, Co-Author of Iowa Acceleration Scale and professor at Belin-Blank center at the University of Iowa 1:35 - 1:55 Tina Schneider is the creator and co-founder of LiveBinders.

In the mid-1980s, John assumed a key role at the Bucks County Intermediate Unit as the Assistant Executive Director. During this leadership tenure, he initiated a curriculum and instruction program evaluation design that is a model to this day for assessing and determining the quality of district gifted education services and programs. It has been used and replicated in dozens of Pennsylvania schools. When serving as superintendent in Radnor Township School District in Suburban Philadelphia, he championed several innovative programs directed to the gifted, while raising learning challenges for all students. Building on a nationally recognized interdisciplinary program at the middle school, known as the Watershed Project, John sponsored the creation of several advanced level high school humanities programs for the gifted. He also acted to expand course options in science, mathematics, and the Advanced Placement offerings. John was both a hands-on superintendent, and an instructional leader. He understood how to take the formidable policy and practice steps that were necessary to challenge the advanced and gifted learner. A hallmark of his years at Radnor was the strong support from John for district- wide curriculum and professional development programs, ones aimed to provide every student with the thinking skills needed to succeed at the highest levels. During his superintendency, he twice invited large teams of experts to conduct comprehensive gifted program reviews, and asked them to gauge what was working well for gifted students, and to also make recommendations for improvement. John’s leadership style never allowed anyone, most of all himself, to rest on their laurels. John often quotes a piece of advice his father often repeated to him: Remember one thing, the biggest room in anyone’s house is the room for self-improvement. John took this to heart, and has urged others in his gentle and generous manner to do the same. For the past several years, John has been the Director of the University of Pennsylvania’s Penn Center for Educational Leadership. This Center, and John’s work, includes coaching new school administrators, conducting training about organizational leadership, and providing superintendent and school leaders with the resources and know-how for program and instructional development. His influence extends into districts across Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, throughout the United States, and even internationally. Over the past years, Dr. DeFlaminis has presented workshop sessions and served on various panels at PAGE and local I.U. conferences, describing to other school leaders how they, too, can be successful 22 leaders for gifted education. He was instrumental in the development of a unique University of Pennsylvania support program for teachers and administrators, called The Gifted Education Leadership Certificate Program. Most recently, John and The Center for Educational Leadership jointly sponsored the second highly successful gifted education summit. This one titled: Critical Conversations: How to Grow Your Advanced and Gifted Learner. Anthony LeStorti, a long-time colleague of John DeFlaminis, writes these heart–of-the-matter words about John: He takes a hard-nosed approach to excellence, and has been very active and supportive of meeting the special growth needs of gifted students. This has been a trend through his work at the Bucks County I.U., Radnor, and on to his current work at Penn; and, of course, it is especially exemplified in his long-term support of PAGE. He challenges those who provide gifted education and/or its support to be action-oriented and to develop greater, more substantial programming that meets the demands of the 21st century. For all of this, John was, and remains, a modest man who would rather credit the people with whom he collaborates, rather than receive this award by himself. It is PAGE’s great honor this year to give this special recognition to Dr. John DeFlaminis for his outstanding service to gifted children and their schooling by awarding him the 2015 Pennsylvania Association for Gifted Education Neuber-Pregler Award.

She has collaborated with PAGE and the gifted liaisons to plan and kick off a Leadership Summit in partnership with the University of Pennsylvania for the past two years. Tanya has consistently taken on a major role in planning and facilitating numerous PAGE Conferences, the HR-139 Gifted Study, and updating and revising all of the gifted forms. Tanya’s presence and support of gifted education reaches far and wide across the Commonwealth.
