5th Grade "Multiplication" Tournament
At the beginning of the year, each 5th grade student was given a set
of multiplication flash cards to begin studying. On December 13, the second
annual 5th grade multiplication tournament was held. The students
were divided into 4 groups based on a timed assessment. During the tournament,
2 players faced each other at a time. The player with the fastest correct
answer then faces the next opponent. Each round was timed. Each player’s
score was kept for stating the correct answer the fastest for the duration of
each round. The players with the most quickly given correct answers moved to
the next round. In the first round there were approximately 20 students per
group, down to around 10 students in 2nd round, and the final round
had each group to 4 or 5 students. At the end of round 3, a champion was named
from each group for the getting the most timely correct answers. The winners
were Sierra Bross, Clay
Repella, Ryan Glatzel, and Alex Gennarelli. The winners each received a $5.00
gift card to Video King and popcorn purchased by the fifth grade
teachers.
