Implementing RtI With Gifted Students: Service Models, Trends, and Issues Paperback – Bargain Price, October 15, 2012

To best use this book, you'll need a good understanding of the RtI model in schools. The book is a series of articles, all about how to successfully use RtI to ensure the needs of gifted students are addressed.There are several different models for approaching this issue. Each model has a chapter devoted to explaining it, examining the research behind it, and offering ideas for implementation. One thing I appreciated is the authors often cited online resources for the reader to examine later.This is by no means a comprehensive examination of the status of gifted students in our schools, but it's a step toward understanding how to give them a fair and equitable education tailored to their needs.This book was provided to me through a Library Thing First Reads offering in exchange for an honest review. I am involved in the GATE program at my school district, and requested this book for that reason.

This book is well-organized, well researched and easy to read and understand. I think it would be an excellent guide for any organization or individual looking to implement RTI with gifted students.The only thing I didn't like about the book was a format issue where words occasionally broke across lines. It's a pet peeve of mine.
