Teacher checklist - Is my student bright, gifted, or studious?

Many times gifted learners are overlooked because they don't present the outward signs of "a good student." This checklist can be used during professional development, RTI, or gifted consideration meetings. It helps in separating behaviors to determine if a student is exhibiting characteristics of a bright learner, a gifted learner, or a studious student.
