Miss Danielle Voit is the Director of HEROES Academy for the Gifted.
At a glance, it seems like a school should be able to take all of the brightest kids, stick them in a class together, and simply move through the math curriculum at a faster pace. But, that doesn’t really work. To truly support the needs of our gifted and talented students within mathematics, we need …

Buy on Amazon Nuby Teething Blanket Noah loves this teething cloth. We have the lion. It’s 9.5″ x 9.5″. It crinkles, and the animal in the center has a squeaker inside. The holes in the corner teething pieces make it easy for him to control what part of the blanket he’s chewing on. Babies that …
In networking, there’s something called an “elevator speech.” If you had to define yourself in 30 to 60 seconds, what would you say? In business, it’s important to articulate what you do professionally – what service or product you can offer and who your target audience is. I’m Danielle Voit, and I’m the Director of …

What’s on Noah’s Bookshelf: Great Books for Babies Read More »
When they’re born, they’re so small and innocent – unscathed by the world around them. Although I know that he’ll grow up too quickly, it’s still hard to believe that this little 10 lb bundle of joy swinging beside me will eventually go to college, move out, and start his own family. The physical, emotional, …
Effect of Early Childhood Experiences on Long-term Academic Achievement Read More »
I find that many of my gifted students are “lop-sided” in their achievements. An overwhelming number of gifted students are advanced in their math studies but not their reading skills.
