    PSE 4th Graders Exceeding in CRCT Mathematics 

    DateThursday, June 4, 2009 | AuthorSowegaLive

     

    The 4th grade students at Potter Street Elementary received a “cool treat” for their hard work and success in mathematics. Each 4th grader scoring 800 or higher on the Mathematics section of the state Criterion Reference Competency Test, popularly know as the CRCT, enjoyed a walking trip to Dairy Queen. Upon arrival each student was treated to a Blizzard of their choice. 

    Not to leave mathematics at school some students made use of their learning. During the walk students noticed historical markers on private homes. They learned about who presented these markers and what they represented. Ask to use their mathematic skills, some students enjoyed calculating the age of each home before other classmates.  

    The students had a great time enjoying the walk and conversations with their classmates. It was a great reward for their hard work and dedication culminating in achieving their important goal of success on the CRCT. This trip would not have been made possible without a grant to Mrs. Bettie Peak from the Decatur County Schools Foundation.
