For K-12 math and science teachers, Callard-Szulgit (gifted studies, State U. of New York at Brockport) and Szulgit (Hiram College) provide 37 math, science, and technology/business activities and ideas for gifted students, with some of the exercises written directly for them. Examples include exercises with maps, the stock market, mindbenders, chemistry, nature, inventions, and chess. They also describe academic programs and include anecdotes by current and former students. The appendices list awards and competitions, centers for gifted education, math and science texts, organizations, magazines, programs, websites, and state contacts. There is no index.
