Welcome to the project! Hope you learn a lot and have a nice time here, too!!

chips is a lot of fun! chips is a program for gifted kids. We are eager to share information about our lives and learn about others daily life.

CHIPs stands for Children with High Intellectual Potential. Students in the CHIPs program have been identified as gifted. The gifted program is a "pull-out" program which means that they leave their classroom and get to come have fun with Mrs. Radnitzer (who is extending their learning in exciting ways:) for 90 minutes per week. We meet on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday, right after lunch. Oh, and sometimes we actually have to do some work too!

We have written a little bit about our daily lives as we prepare to create our digital stories. Mrs. Radnitzer is going to post a couple of our pieces of writing. Let us know what you think.

A Bad Day by John
Around 7:15 I get up and hop in the shower. By 7:45 I am dressed and ready for breakfast. It's usually 8:00 when I pour the milk into my cereal. Now it's 9:00... Wait! What! I'm late! I'm late! I hop in the car and I get a tardy slip by 9:05. The morning is fine - just my usual - until I notice I forgot my backpack! I have no home work to turn in and no food. By the end of the day I have a yellow slip and I am starving. It's 3:30. My Mom comes to pick me up when she say...RING RING RING! What was that!? It was my alarm clock. It was all a DREAM!
