Center Based Gifted

CBG Third Grade

The third grade CBG Academy fosters a positive whole child experience by providing a learning environment that builds relationships among our students. While focusing on social/emotional growth, students learn to collaborate during units that reach across the disciplines. We help to promote higher level thinking skills through the Depth and Complexity model. Some examples of our third grade CBG adventures include delving deeper into the ancient civilizations, hands-on problem solving in mathematics, and developing rich writing skills.
