Mrs. Rubeo's 5th Grade Math Class In Action
After learning how to add and subtract fractions, Mrs. Rubeo’s math class created a game for a math carnival. The catch was the points the players earn at the game have to be in fractions. To win the game a player must earn at least 10 points. The students spent several days planning their booths. This week they have been busy creating the games for their carnival at the end of the week.
