The sumdog.com math contest is underway!!! This is a math contest for all RESA 7 schools which the students can do at home or at school. This is a wonderful website for the students to use to practice and reinforce their math skills.
We have also started using the online accelerated reading program for grades 2-4. We are having a contest to see which class in each grade level can obtain the most accelerated reading points. The students read the book and then they take a 10 question comprehension quiz in order to check their understanding of the book. They are then awarded points based on the number of questions they got correct and the difficulty of the book. Mrs. Marsh's class is leading the way in the 4th grade contest, however, Mrs. Tanner and Mrs. Foster are very close behind. Way to go Fourth Grade!!! The winning class for each grade level at the end of the nine weeks will receive a pizza party. The student in each grade level that has obtained the most points every nine weeks will receive a $25 gift card to Wal-Mart. The overall winner at the end of the school year will receive either a $100 Wal-Mart gift card or an annual pool pass to the new Lewis County Park Pool.
I hope to see more and more students using the Accelerated Reading Program as the year progresses.
