*Enrichment: Enrichment is defined as giving students the opportunity to learn in greater depth and breadth.
**Acceleration: Acceleration of instruction means that students are given a curriculum that is at a higher level than the regular curriculum; the information is more complex or more information is covered; the material is presented more rapidly than in typical instruction; and students are confronted by a greater challenge than is customary with on-grade level material.
