I'm happy to be back! I hope that you are too. I have been doing a lot of planning and preparing. Below is some of what's in store for the upcoming months, but please keep in mind that there are likely to be changes.
Tutorial activities tentative schedule:
Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday: Advanced Studies Projects
Mondays: Robotics
Thursdays: Science Discussion and Activity
(Note: Students must sign-up in advance with Ms. Collins to take part in tutorial activities. Sign-ups are not available yet. Check back later for more details.)
After school
The Future City Club will meet once a week on Thursdays, through the end of January
Chess Club possibly starting up after school on Wednesdays.
Sixth Grade GT Pull-out Classes: Reading the Hobbit by J. R. R. Tolkien; The Joy of Math Class; Architecture and Energy; LEGO Robotics; and Scratch Computer Programming.
7th and 8th Grade Pull-out Classes: Reading the Time Machine by H. G. Wells and Creating a Play; Chain Reaction Machine Making; Advanced Scratch Computer Programming; Current Events Discussion Group; Alcumus Advanced Math Group; and Reading the Lord of the Rings Trilogy by J.R.R. Tolkein.
I don't have any start dates for GT pull-out classes yet, but I assure you that I am working on it. Expect the 7th and 8th grade pull-out classes to begin in late September. 6th Grade GT should start in October.
Independent Work: Advanced Studies Projects and Advanced Math using Alcumus will be offered as options as well. Students must write a proposal and get approval from Ms. Collins for this option.
Please feel free to send me an email [email protected] or call me at school, 413-525-5480 x1250 with any questions or concerns. Students are welcome to visit me in my classroom during tutorial, Tuesday - Friday, if they have any questions.
