Math News
This past week we enjoyed planning vacations and designing our very own zoo. Students were able to work in groups and were very creative in their endeavors. This next week we will continue with some fun projects to help us wind down the year. We even are working on a book called “Math Curse” based on the book by Jon Scieszka.
