Math Night 2016

Submitted by lyndsee.brice on

On Thursday, January 21, Cherry Creek teachers and administrators hosted a Parent Math Night. The following ideas were addressed. Why is math taught differently than when I was in school?  What is the benefit of teaching the math concept along with the procedure? What resources are available for parents to understand the current methods of instruction and be able to help their children out with homework?  Breakout sessions were held to focus on different grade levels. Families that attended were able to take home a math game.

Leader's University

Submitted by lyndsee.brice on
This week, third graders had a graduation ceremony to honor the students who participated in the Leader's University. Leader's University is a program where students have the opportunity to show their leadership in and out of school. While reaching for and maintaining certain grades in areas such as spelling, homework, and mah facts, students also go above and beyond by completing service projects, Great Brain reports (social studies and science related), and book reports each month, as well as participation in school events.
