It's a Wonderful Wednesday! These students enjoyed getting back together and completing a puzzle this morning.

Boys just hanging around at recess!
Students completed Multiple Intelligence Surveys to find out which smart they are.
Our first unit this year is Chess which allows students to practice strategic and critical thinking skills. www.kidchess.com offers some great online games to help novice players.
We used our art smarts to design these beautiful self portraits which will also be used as our gifted binder covers.
These students chose to create sea creatures during Think Fun Time.
