Sixth grade PRISM presentations are this week! Students will learn more about PRISM for gifted and talented enrichment.
Hello everyone! I am the PRISM facilitator and run the gifted programming options for the students at CMS, which include National History Day, Future Problem Solving, Maker Ambassadors, and Passion Project. I also run a Lunch Bunch where we focus a little more on social skills and discussing current events. PRISM does not have an entry test and students self-select their research track. Each September, my colleague (Justin Dolcimascolo) and I push into all of the 6th grade classes at CMS and GMS to provide the students with a quick overview of the adolescent brain, enrichment opportunities, and taking time to find joy in learning. We follow this up with a PRISM for ALL orientation for anyone who thinks they might want to learn more. After that is complete, the students decide if they want to sign up for the year. This opportunity is open to all students. We often find that students have gifts in some areas and gaps in others. We hope to reach as many students as possible with this unique program every year. We will be virtual for now, but our normal location is room 619 by the Media Center. I can't wait to meet you!
