Today, Mr. Hallett's 5th graders calculated mean, median, mode, and range while playing wii bowling and yahtzee. Students had fun seeing who could score the highest in both games.





AGR 3rd Graders visited the Paramount Theatre in Charlottesville today to see Cirque Kalabante'! Be sure to ask your children how they enjoyed this experience!


Students in Ms. Jenkins 2nd grade class learned standard units of measure in a lesson called "If the Shoe Fits." They made a "measuring stick," aka a ruler, and measured their shoe just like Albert and Wonder did in the story. (Look for more opportunities to measure at home!!)





Coordinated by school counselor Janine Morrison, the Alliance Therapy Dog Association (a group of volunteers that bring their K9 to schools, hospitals, libraries, etc.) visited AGR classes last week with Obsidian and Hershey Kisses, pictured here.

For a lunch behavior incentive, students were given the opportunity to be creative and draw during their lunchtime today. Here are just some of the creations.








AGR 5th graders worked with math specialist Candy Standley yesterday- they hypothesized & experimented in a Floating Ghost STEM activity. Each ghost had a paperclip inside, and the challenge was to see if a magnet could make it float. When ghosts didn't float, students considered if the magnet was too strong, or if the placement of the paperclip or size of the ghost made a difference. Our young scientists quickly learned the importance of changing the independent variable in an experiment. Brayden Robertson got the first ghost in the air. Students had a great time learning important science ideas!!
