On April 4, 2016 we celebrated Square Root Day! (Get it? 4 x 4 = 16.) We just had to celebrate! The next one is not until May 5, 2025...
We marked the occasion by participating in some square activities. From building squares to determining perfect squares to completing the square puzzle our students were actively engaged. They even managed to sing along to our favorite Square Dancing songs, thanks to Mrs. Turkosz.
And as a challenge a few embraced the Tangram Square Challenge.
All in all, it was a perfectly square day!
Grades 1 and 2 celebrated the square and all its properties.
Grades 3 and 4 used arrays to find perfect squares and then discussed the patterns.
