Hawker Brownlow Education (www.hbe.com.au) produces catalogues of resources dedicated to gifted education. Many of the resources in this catalogue have been used at Mairehau School to help cater for the needs of gifted students and to enhance the learning of all students.
Web Quests are lots of fun. Search the Internet for Web Quests that are appropriate for the children concerned, for example http://webquest.sdsu.edu/webquest.html.
