Wednesday Trivia 9/23/15
Hey folks,
We've been working on some pretty exciting stuff in class lately. Tomorrow morning, the 5th graders, with the help of STEM (technology) teacher Mr. McKenzie, will be launching our near-space weather balloon! Cool stuff.
Also tomorrow, the kids will be learning how delicious reading and writing can be! They have been learning about text features, such as headings, numbers, types of print, and diagrams...and how they help enhance our understanding. As a final project, students have been creating their own "How to" poster for making the perfect ice cream sundae. Tomorrow afternoon, we will enjoy some ice cream to see how our how-tos came out.
That got me thinking...
1. Who invented the ice cream sundae?
2. What year was it invented, and where? (HINT: there are a couple theories. I want the earliest one.)
Get your answer in and get a few good bucks tomorrow!
ALSO: Be ready for the 8x table tomorrow!

WEDNESDAY Trivia, 9/16/15
Hey folks,
So I've officially decided...trivia is henceforth moved to Wednesdays, instead of Tuesdays! It will work much better.
I'm going to make this a big one!
Today we started our financial literacy (Young Ameritowne) unit. Students learned about businesses, and how they either sell goods or provide services. So it got me thinking...
1. What are the three largest companies in the US food industry?
Also, today we discussed how next Thursday morning, we are launching a weather balloon as a school! It will reach up to 100,000 feet above sea-level! WOW. So it got me thinking...
1. When were hot air balloons, which can carry people, invented?
2. Who invented it? (HINT: They were brothers.)
3. Who were the TWO passengers?
WOW! That's a lot of questions...so you can earn up to FIVE goodbucks for your answers! That's the same as a week's allowance! Good luck!
Keep studying the 7x table!

Monday Math Facts 9/14/15
Hey folks,
I forgot to have the kids write this in their planners...but this week we are working on the 7x table!
7x1= 7
7x2 = 14
7x3 = 21
7x4 = 28
7x5 = 35
7x6 = 42
7x7 = 49
7x8 = 56 (my favorite!)
7x9 = 63
7x10 = 70
7x11 = 77
7x12 = 84
As a note, since the number 7 has two syllables and therefore takes longer to say, you have to recite the table in 30 SECONDS this week! So get it memorized to earn good bucks on Friday! Good luck!

Tuesday Trivia 9/1/2015
Hey folks,
There was an alarming moment to start our school day. Our news report ended with a song by the Beatles...and frighteningly, many students admitted having never HEARD OF the Beatles, while other still...shockingly...admitted to NOT LIKING the Beatles. It was a devastating blow.
That got me thinking...what bands or artists are the best-selling musicians of all time? The Beatles are on the list...along with a few other famous rock groups.
For good bucks, find the TOP FIVE selling artists of all time. (For a bonus good buck, find the top seven...
Good luck!
