St. James School Hosts Math Fair for Grade 4 and 5 Students!

Mrs McHugh’s grade 4-5 class hosted a “Math Fair” at St James School on May 8, 2018. Based on Todd Nesloney’s #kidsdeserveit: the gr 4-5 students chose something they’re passionate about and created a 2-3 minute presentation over at least 6 ways of how math works within that passion. Projects were displayed in the gym and featured Subway sandwiches, dirt bikes, hockey, dancing, swimming, vending machines, figure skating, video games, basketball, transportation, smoothies, fishing, baseball, rainbows and slime. Who knew that math is a big part of all those things!?! Students were very proud to share their mathematical knowledge with all their friends and our guests today. They also realized through these projects that math is a big part of everything around them. #CatholicEdWk
