I teach Gifted & Talented classes at Robertson Elementary School in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The focus of my curriculum has been the study of Japan. I have introduced my students to many aspects of Japanese history and culture. In October, 2006, I will visit Japan as a participant in the Japan Fulbright Memorial Teacher Fund Program.

These kids are in a mechanical arts class, what we used to call shop. They are making wooden boxes. It was very interesting and a little different from what I would see in a class here.

The kids did not ask any questions. They did not ask the teacher for help or for approval. But they did not wear safety goggles, or gloves or use any special safety measures. That part was a little scary.
