One of my favorite lessons to teach my students is the impacts interest rates have on their overall balance while going over the simple interest formula. Here is a little snapshot at the math we did to compare common rates. EAMS

Coaching lacrosse again this spring. 🥍 There is no other group I would want to spend my Saturday mornings with 🤍

Busy Saturday!! Games this morning & now time to watch my students perform in their spring musical 🐻

Happy Opening Day from the Foxes!

Thank you to ROCK LITITZ for such a unique experience for my students! They loved being able to “rock the box & save the show”. Students put their team work & engineering skills to the test today & were quite successful💛🖤!

It’s amazing to see our growth from the start of a unit to the end of a unit 🥳 Still have one topic to cover & I can only imagine how much more the final category will grow! EAMS

Groups are starting their projects today! They will be designing carnival games form start to finish and determining the probability of each prize.

Evolution of some of our probability projects!!

Student creativity is coming out now that we are in the final phases of our project! They cannot wait to host a carnival day and show off their projects to their peers & teachers 🥳 EAMS etownPAschools

Tomorrow is the big day!! Students are putting the final touches on their advertisements for the probability games they’ve designed. EAMS

Probability projects are officially done & turned in! Students had to design their own game, create a tree diagram that matches, calculate probabilities of each individual prize, and make an advertisement! They all did amazing! Photos are of some examples. EAMS

Last day of classes! One of my favorite things to do at the end of the year is to have students sign this journal like a yearbook. It allows me to remember why I started teaching and bring back memories. ☺️ Thank you to Tony Pep for starting this!

Took the students to the IMC to work on their homework yesterday. There is something about being allowed to write on the tables that has them show all of their work 😊 EAMS

AUTHENTIC LEARNING! 🙂 Students are learning about how commission works with certain jobs! Resource linked below! They are comparing potential weekly income at each of these cellular companies. Link: tinyurl.com/FoxCommission EAMS @ksantoro17

EAMS recently hosted Mousetrap Madness, blending family fun with S.T.E.M. learning. Students explored concepts in the classroom, parents joined, and on March 22, families raced mousetrap cars, bonding over physics and laughter. Full story & Slideshow⬇️ tinyurl.com/5n72xwz3

When you have students who love Dunkin' so much, they make it their project’s whole theme 🩷🧡 Project is centered around discovering compound probability!

It’s my favorite time of year!! Compound probability math carnival 🥰

Carnival in full swing today!

New year, another new classroom 🐻💙
