Eighth Grade math students in Mrs Quiles & Ms Franco’s classes closed their unit on Pythagorean Theorem with a circuit activity. Groups navigated the room to visit 10 stations applying use of the theorem to real life situations. The students were happy to move around and make mathematical arguments in their groups, while managing
a strict 3min time limit per station. This activity offered students a chance to relate their understanding of the hypotenuse to sports, distance, area, and perimeter.

Reminder: Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday this week are legal attendance days with dismissal at 1:25pm. Schools are closed Friday and all next week for Spring Recess.



On Friday, March 22, Ms Armanini's class and Mrs. D'Augustine's class visited Adventure Aquarium in Camden, NJ for a Community Based Instruction outing. Students went behind the scenes to see the 760,000 gallon Ocean Realm exhibit where students learned about the responsibilities of the staff members. Students also learned about animal husbandry and some of the beloved, lesser-seen animal ambassadors.
