<div align="left" style="text-align:left;"><font face="Arial" size="+0" color="#006600" style="font-family:Arial;font-size:12pt;color:#006600;">At the fall conference, I did a presentation proposing gifted intervention specialists and coordinators use technology to form a professional learning community or PLC. This Saturday the Ohio Gifted PLC will be having our first virtual meeting. It will take place on Saturday, November 17 10-11am on </font><a href="http://www.bigmarker.com/Ohio-Gifted-PLC" target="_blank"><font face="Arial" size="+0" style="font-family:Arial;font-size:12pt;">http://www.bigmarker.com/Ohio-Gifted-PLC</font></a><font face="Arial" size="+0" color="#006600" style="font-family:Arial;font-size:12pt;color:#006600;">. The topic will be Adapting the Common Core for Our Gifted Students. There is a handout that we will be focusing on, but it is 2.7M in size. If you are interested in participating, please email me off list and I'll send you the
handout. The handout is from Tamra Stambaugh's spring Teacher Academy presentation "Content-Based Curriculum for the Gifted: Adapting the Common Core". So if you were there, then you may already have it! :) If you are Tamra Stambaugh, maybe you'll come too! :)</font></div>
