It's game ON in Mrs. Carma Reidy's class at BIS! Students had a deck of cards and would turn over 1 card at a time to make the greatest place value number they could. Students then were challenged to write their number using words, models, standard form or expanded form.




It's Free Read Friday in Ms. Maclaine Leaird's English 11 class at BJSHS. Students had the opportunity to read a good book and enjoy the sunshine after working hard all week!
