CJL Math Night

CJL’s annual Math Night was held Thursday, October 22^nd.  The library’s contribution to the event was an estimation station.  We provided a jar of objects for each grade level, but students could submit an estimate for any or every jar.  Here is a list of the counts and the winners:

• Kindergartner Makayla’s estimate was closest to the 16 fake teeth.
• First grader Sophie made the nearest estimate to the 66 rods.
• Second graders Oriah and Xavier tied with the closest estimate for jar of 110 pattern blocks.
• Third grader Samantha’s estimate was closest to the 136 rocks.
• Fourth grader Aaron’s estimate for the jar of 157 dinosaurs was the closest.
• Fifth grader Jacklyn made an guess might close to the 255 cubes.
• Fifth grader Alex made the closest estimate for the sixth grade jar of 348 rubber bands.

The winners received math-related books as prizes.  Congratulations, winners!
