National Anti-Bullying Day

Wednesday 10/22/14 is National Anti-Bullying Day. Please wear orange!



We completed our Orienteering Activities today where the students had to work together and use problem solving skills to solve riddles around the school. Thanks to Mr. Mergl and Mrs. Giordano for the awesome activity. We are looking forward to future trips in the community where we utilize these skills.



In Social Studies we have been reviewing ALL of Chapter 2 about the Civil War. We have a test on Friday 10/24/14! Just a friendly reminder :)



In Math, we started Chapter 2 and took on the challenging on understanding Rational Numbers

A Rational Number: Any number that can be made by dividing one integer by another. The word comes from "ratio".

Examples:

1/2 is a rational number (1 divided by 2, or the ratio of 1 to 2)
0.75 is a rational number (3/4)
1 is a rational number (1/1)
2 is a rational number (2/1)
2.12 is a rational number (212/100)
-6.6 is a rational number (-66/10)
