Nadarjeni učenci imajo posebno sposobnost oziroma talent, s katerim lahko veliko prispevajo k družbi. Učiteljeva naloga je, da jim te sposobnosti pomaga razvijati, zlasti sposobnost iskanja novih odgovorov na vprašanja. Na šoli se vsako leto srečujemo s problemom, kako nadarjene učence čim aktivneje vključiti, jim ponuditi nove izzive ter jih povezati, da bodo svoje znanje prenašali na druge. S pomočjo nadarjenih učencev iz višjih razredov smo oblikovali interesno dejavnost s področja naravoslovja in jim omogočili, da pripravijo eksperimente in vodijo dejavnost za mlajše učence. S tem so spoznali nov način dela, kjer so lahko pokazali svoje voditeljske sposobnosti in svoj talent, svoje znanje pa prenašali na učence iz nižjih razredov ter pri njih spodbujali opazovanje, radovednost, vedoželjnost, razmišljanje, sklepanje … Taka oblika dela je prinesla same pozitivne odzive učencev, staršev pa tudi drugih delavcev šole. Vemo, da so nadpovprečno sposobni učenci naše največje bogastvo, zato jih ne smemo zanemariti, ampak čim bolje izkoristiti njihove sposobnosti.
Abstract
The Inclusion of Gifted Pupils at the Implementation of the Interest Activity of the Science Class
Gifted pupils have a special ability or talent, with which they can greatly contribute to society. The teacher‘s task is to help develop these skills in learners and to develop the ability to find new answers to questions. At school we encounter the problem of how to involve talented students as actively as possible and to offer them new challenges and connect them in order to transfer their knowledge to others. With the help of gifted pupils from higher grades, we have created an interest activity in the field of science and enabled them to prepare experiments and lead activities for younger school children. Thus they have learned a new way of working, where they could show their leadership skills and their talent. They transferred their knowledge to younger students from lower grades, and encouraged their observation, curiosity, thinking, reasoning … This kind of work was positively accepted by the parents and other school workers. We know that gifted pupils are our greatest assets and should not be neglected, but to make the most of their abilities.
