Day Two: Measurement

Day Two: Measurement

Today the theme for “Fun with Math” was measurement.  Students participated in many activities that had them moving all over the school.  The students continued competing in their three separate teams and participated in track and field type events such as long jump and relay races.  The students measured time and distance using different tools.  The most exciting event of the day was the scavenger hunt.  Students were given a sheet with 20 different boxes and were asked to find the 20 different questions that were hidden around the school.  The questions had students calculate different areas and needless to say the students were very involved and had a lot of fun participating.  Points were given for the team that had the most complete answers and who was able to complete it in the shortest amount of time.
