Our student population is extremely diverse. Over 40 languages and dialects are spoken in the homes of our students. Many are the first generation in their families born in the United States. As a group, they are excited to learn and ripe for new adventures in learning. I teach a class of fourth grade gifted learners. They are creative, eager, and crave complexity on a constant basis. They want to know "how" and "why." They need to exercise their critical thinking skills and encounter rich and authentic challenges. They need curriculum that is relevant to their lives so that they are pushed to grapple with meaningful issues. Many of these students have often found themselves learning in isolation as they complete solitary enrichment work. They yearn to be understood and encounter an academic structure that satisfies their appetite for depth and breadth in learning. Their needs are as diverse as their different home structures, cultural backgrounds, and learning preferences.
