Giftedness is still a taboo topic in the Republic of Croatia. Although we are aware that there are gifted students we do not do much about it. Giftedness has been talked about since ancient times, and gifted people are considered intimidating because of abilities that are unknown and surreal to most, which is why they have often been expelled from society and considered weirdos. Times have changed and people have realized that there are differences, but it is still something in our nature to react to differences with great caution. Gifted children who are different from their peers from an early age are often treated in this way. The environment in which they grow up greatly influences what they will become and how they will fit into society. In the hectic world around us, parents do not manage to take care of their children enough, and mostly hand over their children to teachers who will, depending on their own judgment, assess whether it is a gifted child and how they will treat it. After identifying the student in which area he / she is gifted, the teacher is obliged to implement all measures in accordance with the prescribed law on education of gifted students, which would mean that he / she is obliged to provide students with adequate teaching with an advanced program. If he fails to identify the child or such a failure, there is a risk of developing some of the disorders in individuals. For this reason, we have explored the main instruments that teachers use in teaching students - school textbooks. From the compared four sets of textbooks and textbooks and one integrated textbook, we found that the content for the gifted is scarce, and teachers are in charge of designing classes that are adapted to gifted students.
