Fourth graders at Centerfield have begun an exciting academic competition this week. It's our version of the Run for the Roses, but instead of chasing horses - we're chasing knowledge!
We're spiraling through the fourth grade curriculum to enrich and extend our knowledge in math, reading, and science. Classes rotate to all fourth grade teachers for activities in different subject areas. At the end of the activities, teachers present students with an exit question. If 80% or more of the class answers the question correctly, the class moves forward one space on our racetrack.
This competition seems to be helping us keep our stamina high as we close in on the end of the year. I'm having a lot of fun with it and I hope you are, too! Add your comment to this post to let me know what you think about WIN, PLACE, SHOW......WHAT YOU KNOW!
