Teaching observation, interviews and document were used to collect data for one semester, and the results indicated that mathematics problems the teacher designed were diverse, life-related, and classified as high cognitive prob- lems. Exploration and discussion were used to solve the problems in order to foster students’ abil- ities on mathematical thinking, reasoning, communication, connection and representation, and guide students to conduct independent study for getting more exploration. Mathematics curricu- lum design and implementation of the teacher was based on her personal teaching ideas, prior experiences and interests, and in the context of parents’ support and without pressure from spe- cific teaching progression, she integrated the objectives of gifted curriculum, students’ needs and interests into the design and implementation of the mathematics curriculum. Thus, her teaching evoked students’ interest to explore mathematics further. The teacher also used the resu
