Castle Building Contest

Posted: May 21, 2009

~~~~Castle Building Contest~~~~ On May 5th and May 7th one of our math centers was a Castle Building Contest.  We are exploring Geometry in math class and the Castle Building Contest let us use our math skills when working with the attribute blocks.  In our groups we had to work as a team to build the castle.  It was an excellent time!  Each group had a picture taken with their castle so that the rest of the school could vote on the best castle between Mrs. Moody’s class and Miss O’Reilly’s class.  On Monday, May 11 during the live morning announcements Group 7 found out that they won.  Molly, Matthew, Amanda and Sarah were in Group 7 and received a certificate from Mrs. Simmons.  The certificate said “Queen of the Castle” for the girls and “King of the Castle” for the boys.  All 8 groups had a terrific time working on their castles.
