My Students

In my gifted classroom, the students come from diverse backgrounds, but they all have one thing in common: They come to school to work hard and achieve the ambitious goals that they set for themselves.

Their dedication to the pursuit of knowledge is truly impressive.

I am so proud of them each and every day! They are enthusiastic and enjoy working on self-driven passion projects.

Whether it be science, English, math, or social studies, my students come to school ready to learn.

My Project

We have recently purchased a huge Harry Potter Lego set to help build a sense of community in our gifted classroom. We have decided to work together on Friday afternoons to see if we can put the entire set together. The students are super excited.

This Harry Potter Castle light set will help illuminate the castle that the students build together when they are all done.

In addition, there are some other fun Harry Potter items in this project that will help us spruce up out Harry Potter themed classroom.
