We welcome yet another month, and we start getting ready to receive sunny days as Spring Break approaches us.This week we will review Experimental and Theoretical Probability and if time allows we will build a Tetrahedron Kite out of straws and tissue paper.

Here are some of our Sierpinski Triangles which we did as a group activity.

Special Thanks to Mrs. Chapa and all the 7th Grade Falcons who participated in the Math Carnival, our 6th Grade Falcons had a lot of fun and learned a special lesson on Probability.
