From astronomy to biomedical engineering, 5th grade G&T is busy! Today we started designing our own knee braces. The toughest part…making them removable! @OPSchoolsNJ
What a fun way to end our G&T convocations - 5th graders enjoyed Space today! Transmitting data, learning about Space Force, and even planet hopping with the Liberty Science Center. #shoreconsortium@OPSchoolsNJ@LibertySciCtr
Another great way to end the week…a Forensic Science Convocation for 7th & 8th grade G&T! We tried our hands at sketching a suspect, listened to a Validation DNA Analyst, and even learned about the Innocence Project. And we ended with a bit of fun…an escape room! @OPSchoolsNJ
Another great Convocation! From a virtual screening of independent films to making art for the Exquisitely Connected project and ending the day with a performance by the Homeless Apiens. It was a good day to be a 6th grader! #shoreconsortiumnj#WeAreOp@OPSchoolsNJ
@SchwarzHeather So glad! The kids were amazing today, even when the art project was challenging. The fox painting was definitely tough, but they were rockstars!
“The secret of life is art.” -Oscar Wilde Well, today the 3rd & 4th grade G&T discovered the secret! Thank you Shore Consortium of Gifted and Talented for a great day of fine arts! @MrMagsOP@OPSchoolsNJ#WeAreOP

“T is for Brain” is a higher level thinking ABC’s Jamboard. Students attempt to guess each letter’s association. Watch the preview to get the idea. If interested, post the answer for “J is for Learning.” Or just post, “Yes.” :)
Requiring children to choose books at a particular "level" for independent reading often denies them intellectual and social/cultural access AND the right to self-direct their reading lives. More cons than pros. #nerdybookclub
