She has been at Roosevelt for 14 years. She is new to Roosevelt, although she is a veteran APS teacher. She lives in the East Mountain area with her family. Bill Brodsky teaches Gifted Humanities for half of the day and teaches Guitar and 8th grade Humanities the other half. Paige Brannum teaches Problem Solving to the gifted students on our team.
Students also pay bucks as a part of our consequence system.
In Math they learn how to manage their bucks through a checking account. Our team will have other activities throughout the year as well. Soon your child will start a Friday Forum class, where for an hour every Friday they'll get to learn about something a bit different, such as Chinese writing, ceramics, paper-making, and other topics. Students will also learn keyboarding through Problem-solving class. Then, using Roosevelt's new Alphasmarts, students will be able to apply these skills for the rest of the school year.
