4 Classroom Expectations
Classroom Values: Feel free to do anything that does not cause a problem for anyone else. I teach when there are no distractions. I listen to students who raise their hand. I listen to one person at a time. Please treat all with respect. If someone causes a problem, I will do something. What I do will depend on what happened and what the person is willing to do to solve the problem. As a student: I come prepared for class. This includes having all materials, as well as having projects completed on time. I follow school rules and exhibit PEACE at Brisas.

5 Teaching Beliefs Love and Logic
Student Involved Assessment – Rubrics/checklists Student led conferences – presenting projects.

6 Resources STEM projects using the Engineering design process.
Units matching curriculum maps made by Gifted Resource Teachers. Online resources Teacher made pre/posttests Journal Problem Solving Humanities resources – Literature studies, vocabulary, and Jr. Great Books.

7 K-2 Students in K-2nd grade will receive direct services from our school’s Gifted Resource Teacher.  The Primary Education Thinking Skills (PETS) program will be used to provide enrichment opportunities appropriate for young gifted learners.  1st and 2nd grade students will receive 1-hour of specialized instruction on Mondays while general education peers receive ELE (Extended Learning Experiences) which will ensure our gifted students do not miss any core instruction. 

8 What is PETS™? Systematized enrichment and diagnostic thinking skills program K-3 lessons are presented in convergent analysis, divergent synthesis, visual/spatial thinking, and evaluation Stories are based on animal characters Flexible, fun, and stimulating approach to teaching the higher level problem-solving strategies Aligns with Common Core ELA and Math, National Association for Gifted Standards & 21st century thinking skills The program develops critical thinking skills

9 Third Grade Students in 3rd-5th grade will receive direct instruction in STEM/STEAM and Humanities.  Curriculum for this pull out gifted class has been aligned to the National Association for Gifted Children (NAGC) standards, as well as academic standards, but is not meant to be academic replacement for core content.  3rd grade students will receive 3-hours of specialized instruction on Mondays and Fridays from 1:00-2:30 PM.  

10 Fourth Grade 4th grade students will receive 2.45-hours of specialized instruction on Mondays from 8:00-10:00 and Wednesdays from 8:00-8:45 PM during their regularly scheduled Science/Social Studies block.  

11 Fifth Grade 5th grade students will receive 2.5-hours of specialized instruction on Wednesdays and Fridays during their regularly scheduled Science/Social Studies block either period 1 or period 2.  We have created our school’s master schedule so that 3rd-5th grade students will not miss any ELA or Math core instruction.
