This is my second year teaching the Gifted curriculum, but my 17th year in the classroom. This year I serve 85 gifted students from 9 different schools. My students have a natural curiosity, but they love anything STEM related. Some of their favorite activities are coding with games and robots, engineering with Legos and K'Nex, and playing strategic games like chess and checkers. It's my goal to increase my STEM inventory every year, to help meet the curious appetite of my students.
