What Do You Do With an Idea? What Do You Do With an Idea?

BES/BIS LINC students are currently exploring "What Do You Do With An Idea!" After participating in a read-aloud of the book, students brainstormed a variety of ideas. Each student has now chosen one of their ideas to present to their LINC classmates. Students have determined how to best share that idea. Some of their options include presenting through the creation of a model, a slide show, a flyer, or an advertisement. Classroom presentations will be taking place within the next few weeks.

BMS LINC Elective students had the privilege of meeting with County Judge J.D. Clark. Judge Clark answered student questions in regard to the preservation and restoration of the Wise County Courthouse. He also took the time to converse with the students about their current courthouse unit of study and the courthouse models that they are constructing. Thank you Judge Clark for investing in the students at Bridgeport ISD!

After decades in gifted education, I’ve learned one thing: teachers don’t need more theory. You need practical strategies that work on Tuesday morning when you have 28 kids, three different readiness levels, and approximately 47 seconds to implement differentiation before someone needs a bandaid or the bathroom.
