![]() The Enrichment Units for the Middle Years are online and print units for extending gifted students anywhere, at any time across the school campus or within the home school. Fifty enrichment units are now available for middle years: approximately Grades / Years 4 to 10. The EUMY Mathematics units replace Being Mathematical, which is used in schools in six countries. Prior to working on the EUMY units, Lynne Kelly, the Director of EUMY Education, had ten education titles published in Australia and overseas, in the fields of science, mathematics, computing and gifted education. She has also published a novel and three popular science books for adults, and is working on her doctorate in the English Department of LaTrobe University as a science writer. She continues to work as a consultant specialising in curriculum development for gifted students. Teaching the enrichment units keeps her constantly in touch with the realities of the classroom.

The Enrichment Units for the Middle Years (EUMY) are designed to run parallel to the regular curriculum and act as extension units for gifted students. Supplied with an unlimited site licence, they can be available to all staff and students in the school at all times, so can be used whenever or wherever extension is needed. EUMY units can also be used as the core material for the gifted education program for students in the middle years, that is from mid primary to mid secondary. Each unit comes with a Teachers' Guide in Word format.
Units are available in Mathematics, Science, Information Technology, Humanities and Cross Curricular.
US visitors: Lynne Kelly presented the EUMY suite at the Gifted Learning Conference in as a guest of the Nueva School, CA, in October 2007 and will be there again in October 2009. EUMY Education is based in Victoria, Australia.
