These unique learning experiences can vary in nature and are delivered using multiple instructional strategies including differentiated instruction, cluster grouping, enrichment programs, curriculum compacting, accelerated learning, and independent study.  \nACCS Programming for eligible students includes:  \nGrades K-3 Creativity and Critical Thinking  \nEach K-3 classroom is equipped with resources for teachers to use with students during their enrichment period who exhibit advanced levels of achievement in creative and critical  \nthinking. These students will receive the enrichment activities based on careful consideration and evaluation by the classroom teacher in consultation with the Gifted and Talented teacher.  \nGrades 4-5 Gifted and Talented-Academic Challenge & Enrichment [ACEs]  \nThose students who qualify for the ACES program meet with the Gifted and Talented teacher twice weekly for instruction. The ACES program focuses on providing instruction designed to appropriately differentiate activities and address individual strengths, learning styles, interests, creativity, and critical thinking to meet the unique needs of gifted learners.  \nGrades 6-8 Academic Challenge and Enrichment Courses [ACEs]  \nStudents are re-screened in the Spring of Grade 5 for participation in the middle school Gifted and Talented Program ACES program. Those who qualify are scheduled into one daily ACES course during their enrichment period each year. Instruction specific to the needs of gifted learners is integrated within the core disciplines of English Language Arts (grade 6), Science (grade 7), and Social Studies (grade 8) through a compacted curriculum. Typically, students engage in experiences designed specifically for the gifted learner two periods per week. They engage in discipline-specific learning in the content areas the remainder of the week.  \nAdditional Resources Supporting Gifted Education  \nThe National Association for Gifted Children provides a great deal of information identification of giftedness and programming for gifted students.  \nThe National Research Center on the Gifted and Talented from the University of Connecticut provides current research on what works for gifted students.  \nPrufrock Press website on Parenting Gifted Children provides information and resources for parents of the gifted.  \nThe criteria for entrance into Gifted Education  \nThe Atlantic Community Charter School and Talented Program in Grades K-8, utilizes measures of Student Achievement and an assessment of learned reasoning abilities to identify gifted students. The full text of the ACCS Board of Education-approved criteria can be accessed via the link below. Additionally, please see below for FAQs about the CogAT.  \nCognitive Abilities Test [CogAT] Frequently Asked Questions  \n1. What is the CogAT?  \nThe Cognitive Abilities Test, or CogAT is a nationally-normed test published by Riverside Insights that measures students’ learned reasoning abilities in the three areas most linked to academic success in school: Verbal, Quantitative and Nonverbal. It is NOT an assessment of grade level content and skills like the NJSLA standardized achievement tests. The CogAT is typically administered in a group setting, proctored by the student’s teacher.  \n2. Which students are eligible to take the CogAT?  \nAll students in grades 3 and 5 are provided the opportunity to be assessed via the CogAT during the course of the school year. Official communiqués regarding CogAT testing dates will be provided in advance of the coordinated testing dates and placed on the ACCS web site’s calendar. Additionally, students new to the School in grades 4 and above are also provided the opportunity to take the CogAT during the summer [FAMS]/ at the beg","cbCaiegdGIp0rj2Y","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiegdGIp0rj2Y","pdf",1065198,11,"English","# ACCS Programming for Eligible Students\n## Grades K-3 Creativity and Critical Thinking\n## Grades 4-5 Gifted and Talented: Academic Challenge & Enrichment [ACEs]\n## Grades 6-8 Academic Challenge and Enrichment Courses [ACEs]\n## Additional Resources Supporting Gifted Education\n## Criteria for Entrance into Gifted Education\n# Cognitive Abilities Test [CogAT] Frequently Asked Questions\n## What is the CogAT?\n## Which students are eligible to take the CogAT?\n## How does ACCS use the CogAT?\n## What does the CogAT measure?\n## What is the CogAT scoring process?","[{\"question\":\"What is the CogAT?\",\"answer\":\"The Cognitive Abilities Test (CogAT) is a nationally-normed test published by Riverside Insights that measures students’ learned reasoning abilities in Verbal, Quantitative, and Nonverbal areas.
