In my abstract, I would like to present and describe how I work as a teacher at lower primary level with the gifted and potentially gifted students for many years now and how I include ICT into the work. Author B. Drenik (2014) indicates in the diploma paper how implementing the ICT into classes changes the learning as well as teaching process and changes the management of educational institutions. The knowledge and skills gained on the computer is not only important for education but it prepares each individual for everyday life. At classes of individual and group assistance (ISP) for gifted students I was making them ready for several competitions. In this way I also upgraded the work and taught the students how to perform a research work, how to write it and how to present it to the others by using ICT. Author M. Juriševič (2012) is convinced that gifted students need competent and innovative teachers in order to develop their potentials and achieve excellence. At classes of individual and group assistance (ISP) for gifted students from 4th and 5th class I was making them ready for science competition called Kresnička. At individual group assistance classes for the gifted we thoroughly checked and debated everything they need to follow when it goes to performing the experiments which content was known from its announcement in the competition notice. When the students applied for the competition they needed to be aware that a lot of individual work at home awaits them. At all three attempts, which the 4th and 5th graders had to perform, they needed to follow the guidelines and instructions which were prepared by the mentor. Every attempt was photographed and documented, which was the base for the efficient power point presentation. At the classes the students presented their experiments and conclusions as well as results. Based on the findings and conclusions after performed experiments the students were ready for the competition.
