We had a terrific first class. There are many crossovers between our program last year and DH's so that made it quite smooth. We jumped right into Creative Problem Solving using the PETS (Primary Education Thinking Skills) Program. We learned how to do Logic Puzzles. We were able to complete three puzzles today and will finish them in TWO weeks.
NEXT, week the second grade classes are going on a field trip to the St. Louis Zoo. This is a wonderful opportunity and I'll be joining the students so that I can incorporate what they are learning in class into our GATE curriculum. Students need to bring their binders with dividers on Tuesday, Sept. 27, our next class together.
Each student should have brought home a note explaining our program and book orders. The book orders need to be returned to me or placed on line by Sept. 23. The links are on an earlier post here on the blog.
