Family Fun Night

Last Wednesday, parents and students that attended Fifth Grade Family Fun Night practiced Edutyping, created a bow, played a math game, and were treated with root-beer floats. Technology is becoming more and more important in today's world and the students are expected to be able to type a complete essay in one sitting by the end of the year. Kids got a chance to show their typing skills to their parents and then the parents got to try. We then asked the everyone to work in teams to create a bow that would shoot an arrow the furthest distance. STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) was the theme for this activity and students will get to finish this project during our October late start. We then headed to the gym for a Quiz-Quiz-Trade Math game. Parents were surprised at how hard this can be at first. Lastly everyone was treated with root-beer floats to show the 3 states of matter: solid, liquid, and gas. We hope everyone had a great time!
