HAGT’s Tools To Help Your Students
Das-Churchville ORB© System(Observation & Response-to-Behavior)
A structured screening tool that assesses five domains which include academic engagement, social-emotional functioning, communication, sensory and motor skills, and memory and processing, and flags areas of concern while mapping them to evidence-informed strategies.
- Needs several prompts before beginning work
- Unsure how to start despite instructions
- Break task into clearly labeled steps
- Offer a specific first-step prompt
HAGT PRISM©questionnaire(Profile of Reasoning, Interests, Supports, & Motivation)
A free, interactive tool that generates a personalized learning profile for a highly able child. They work through a scenario-based questionnaire, and you get back a clear picture of how they think, what drives them, and where they do their best learning.
Ready-to-Use Forms & Planners
Student Self-Advocacy Planner
Student Self-Advocacy is a key component of any high ability or gifted & talented school program. As educators, we may have enrichment or challenge ideas in mind that we think will best match a student’s level, but the best predictor of success is student interest and involvement in the process. Unless you’ve got a particularly precocious younger child, the planner is most appropriate for grades 3 and above. The convenient and fillable planner is the first step in drafting a personalized academic plan.
Give your advanced students voice and choice with the Student Self-Advocacy Planner!

Student Interview Form for Program Eligibility
As part of a comprehensive eligibility review, teams should consider both objective and subjective data. The Student Interview Form can be used to identify areas of perceived strengths and weaknesses as well as interests and creativity that may be difficult to quantify through traditional testing. Eligibility forms for grades 2-4 may be a good fit for your more advanced or mature students in K-1. Eligibility forms for grades 5-12 may be a good fit for your more advanced or mature students in grades 3-4.
