I know they will keep up with their great performance!! I am proud of them. :)
MathMagician's MAGIC Prize BOX
I want to thank everyone contributed to MathMagicians' PRIZE BOX in particular, Mrs. Casurluk & Mrs. Mueller for their continuous support. MathMagicians are extremely excited about PRIZE BOX & therefore exceptionally motivated to do an amazing job in math class every day!
As you know, MathMagicians have been earning points as compliments for homework submission on time, superior participation and role model behaviors such as reading a book when you are done early. They can use compliment points to buy objects from our prize box.
If you are able to send in items to donate to our prize box I would be very grateful! Many families take a look at toys they have at home and send in small items they no longer use, or visit the dollar store and send in small objects they know 4th grader MathMagicians would love. Please consider sending in any prize box items that you can, I do appreciate it.
