Magnificient Math Camp was held Tuesday July 6- Friday July 13 from 9:00-11:00 at Jackson Elementary School. The camp was open for students from Jackson Elementary entering 4th and 5th grade. Twenty fourth and fifth grade students took part in the camp that Debbie Winn, first grade teacher, and Jolene Dishart, AmeriCorps, planned and taught. The students spent the week engaging in a variety of math activities such as writing checks and balancing their our own checkbooks, playing restaurant (taking orders, adding totals, figuring tax and tip, making change), playing quizmo (bingo with math facts), making fraction pizzas, and constructing figures with geometric shapes.
