ARMSTRONG FAMILY MATH NIGHT parent invite

Armstrong has graciously extended an invitation to our community to join them for this wonderful event at their school tonight at 6:30.  Check out this attached flyer to learn more about it, and I hope some of you can make it because this is a unique and exciting opportunity to hear some great strategies for making math fun and easy!  

Real World Connections Needed!

4th grade: Enigma


Students will create an investigative news report on enigmas from around the world.  If you have experience in journalism or newscast production we would love to involve you in this special project.  Please email me if you have a lead in this area.  

Also, students will complete a mock trial to prove the existence of a popular enigma so if you have courtroom experience and would like to be a part of this exciting experience please email me so we can work together on plan for the upcoming mock trial.

Real World Connections Needed!

4th grade Robotics


Students will design, build, and program robots in this unit.  If you experience with coding or robotics, we would love to have your assistance with this unit.  Please email me if you are interested in hearing more about this opportunity to get involved with this project.

Real World Connections Needed

3rd grade Toys and Games: Build a business


Students will investigate timeless toys and games of the past decades to discover how toys reflect the environment of each decade.  Calling all parents and grandparents!  If you have a childhood game that is now just a piece of history, we want to study it in class!  Please email me to present as part of our toy panel.  


Also, if you have experience or a connection in the world of advertising we would love a guest speaker or class mentor to guide our advertisement portion of making a business plan.  Please email me to set up a guest speaker time.   

Real World Connections Needed!

3rd grade Healthy Heart


Students will investigate and examine the importance of maintaining a healthy heart.  I am seeking experts in the field of medicine to help students explore that world of cardiac care.  Please email me if you might have a lead for our class. 

Real World Connections Needed!

2nd grade Inventive Thinking:


Students will learn to distinguish the difference between discoveries, inventions, and innovations.  Do you know an inventor that would be able to speak to our class?  Please email me so that we can plan how we can incorporate real world knowledge into our unit.
