99 ideas for enrichment activities in secondary school
An Optimus Publishing Publication
Enrichment work is a chance for teachers to develop their professional experience and to explore their areas of interest as well as for pupils to broaden their learning experience. The keys to success are knowing the necessary ingredients to recognising and producing quality enrichment and extension activities; equally important is to understand the right time for the most effective impact from selected enrichment and extension activities and remembering that you as a teacher do not need to do all the work! Good enrichment activities should be a chance to move beyond the curriculum and across disciplines. This easy-to-use file is designed to offer the G & T teacher access to differentiated enrichment extension activities, all of which have been trialled with gifted and talented children.

This publication will provide:

  • An opportunity for self-direction, for independence of thought and action and for leadership and communication skills to develop.
  • An opportunity for individual attention such that the child will find it necessary to discuss options with their peers, their curriculum extension teacher, and other adults.
  • Opportunities for extensive reading should the learner so desire.
  • An opportunity for originality and imagination to be demonstrated through problem solving, creativity, sensitivity, logic and reasoning.

This book is written to support the secondary gifted and talented student. Much of it can be easily adapted for use with post-16 students and staff development programmes.
