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!

Tuesday Trivia, 8/25/15
Hey folks,
One more reminder to parents that this Thursday, from 6:00-6:45 and 7:00-7:45 is back to school night. I look forward to seeing you there!
On to trivia!
In reading class, we're enjoying a fun story called, "McBroom Tells the Truth." It's about a farmer and his family that moves to Iowa, and a trickster neighbor causes all kinds of problems for them.
On that note, I was curious...what are the largest major crops grown and exported from the United States?
Find the top 5 crops in the US, write them down, and earn some good bucks!

Tuesday Trivia 8/18/15
Hey folks,
Welcome back! First, a reminder: Back-to-School night for parents is NEXT Thursday, August 27th. (I apologize...I think I had the kids write THIS Thursday in their planners!) It starts at 6:00 PM.
Today in class, we learned about the air we breathe and what air is a mixture of (mostly nitrogen and oxygen.) We also know that air is all around us, and that it makes up our atmosphere...we're walking through the atmosphere right now!
For trivia this week, I'd like you to research something we will be discussing in class in the coming days:
What are the different definable layers of our atmosphere? (2 goodbucks)
BONUS: What naturally occurring gases are lighter than oxygen? HINT: Look up the periodic table of elements. (2 goodbucks)
Good luck! And keep practicing the 3x table for Friday!
