Penny Wars!!!

The National Junior Honor Society will be hosting a Penny Wars between all 1st period classes starting Monday, March 7th and ending Friday, March 11th.

The winning classroom will be able to pick from a selected group of charities where the money will be donated.

Rules:

The classroom with the most points at the end of the fundraiser wins

- Pennies count as one positive point each, but silver coins and paper money (including checks) count AGAINST the classroom.

This is where the competition begins. Students can “bomb” their competitors’ jar by placing silver coins and paper money into it. For example, if a homeroom looks like they have a lot of pennies, a student can “bomb” (sabotage) that jar by putting a quarter into the jar and that classroom’s points will decrease by 25, a dollar will reduce their points by 100, etc.

At the end of each day, count the pennies separately from the silver coins and bills. Subtract the total amount in silver and bills from the total amount of pennies. The difference is the actual points earned by that classroom.

Publicly announce the points each homeroom earned so students can plan what classrooms they may want to “bomb” the next day. Remind students that pennies are positive points and they need to continue bringing them in to add to their own jars. After a couple of days most of the homerooms will have negative numbers.

Teachers are encouraged to participate. Many have been known to empty their piggy banks to help their classrooms out. Others have told their students that they’ll match portions of their contributions. Students begin looking down and picking up pennies they find on the ground; it’s amazing how many pennies are dropped and not picked up.

Scale Model Project in Ms. Kelliher's Grade 7 Accelerated Math Class!

As part of a unit on ratios and proportional relationships, students in Miss Kelliher’s 7th grade accelerated math class recently completed a scale model project. Students were asked to pick an object, building, place, etc. that they wanted to either build or draw a scale model of. They were able to put their knowledge of proportions to practical use when determining the what the dimensions of their models should be. The finished designs turned out great!

Kacee and Bianca display their project proudly!

Aedan poses with his scale model of the Washington Monument!

Siobhan, Carly, Isabella and Kayla stand in front of their model of Fenway Park, with lights!
