I teach two groups of incredible 6th graders. I have one block of honors students and one block of GATE (gifted and talented) students. They are engaged, inquisitive and so eager to learn. This is their first year in middle school and they have shown they are ready for the responsibility. They really are interested in bettering themselves as students and learners. They are learning to have scholarly discussions and to politely disagree with each other's opinions. This is important because they are very opinionated and even at this young age, many of them know what they believe. They are an absolute joy to teach. I also teach a very energetic group of 7th grade 3-D art students. They were placed in this elective, so many would not consider themselves artists. However, I am constantly impressed with the risks they take in their work. They are open minded and hard working. I teach a wonderful group of students.
