Math Fair: A Successful Partnership

It started on Tuesday with the 4th and 5th grades learning measurement and metric conversions with rulers and playing cards. We continued on Wednesday with a front page article in the News Herald. In the afternoon, 2nd and 3rd graders estimated and measured circumference, counted and made change with play money, and learned the value of one minute. The fair concluded today as Kindergarten and first graders made rules, cut Twizzlers to specific lengths and measured various things. Everyone took home the activities and most materials needed for the activities.

Thank you to everyone who made this event possible: parents, teachers and students. We all worked together to create fun, learn through play activities or investigations that can be done at home to reinforce what is taught at school. For no matter how old we get, we will learn through play, with reinforced repetition and by having fun. I believe we succeeded. Thank you! ~Amy
