You will find weekly newsletters under the newsletter tab with information about what we will be doing each day. I attempt to adhere to the newsletter as closely as possible, however each class is driven by the students' enthusiasm and, sometimes, it is necessary to extend an activity into the next day.
Class overview
This class is designed to challenge while allowing for exploration and collaboration in all subject areas. Class will meet two times each week and, on the days we do not meet, students will have the opportunity to continue to work on their year-long projects (once assigned) and other activities provided by me.
Every school year, each GT class is responsible for completing a research-based project. Below is a description of each project by grade level. All projects are completed during class time in order to maintain the independent nature of the assignment. Stay tuned for more information.
