PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE: Nov. 28, 2005

Mathletes Continue Winning Ways
Both of the Hall Mathletes teams turned in impressive performances at the first county competition. The eighth grade team finished the first round tied for first place and the seventh grade team is currently tied for third. Our Mathletes meet weekly to work on math problems and develop strategies to solve new challenges.

This year I am continuing a tradition from last year – the Family Math Challenge. Below you will find a math problem from the most recent county competition. I encourage you to work on the problem as a family. A little time talking about math beats the television any day of the week! When you have your answer, email, phone or hand-transport your answer to me. The first five families who respond will be eligible for a lunchtime trip to Baskin Robbins for ice cream.

We’ll start the year off with an easy one:

Three teas and two muffins cost $3.11. One tea and one muffin cost $1.32. How much is a muffin?

Canned Heat
The Canned Food Drive is heating up. Homerooms are competing to collect the most cans to donate to the Food Bank. It is interesting to watch students from each homeroom closely guard their can totals. As a school, we are also competing against Redwood High School to collect the most cans. The net result of these competitions is a large number of cans being collected and given to those who need them. It is great to see the kids put energy into helping other people.
