April Eureka Apprentice

March Eureka Apprentice


Study/Learn

I. Pull out the ancient calculating device. Please bring it to class! We will use it this time!

Spend 10 minutes adding and subtracting with the abacus.  Find someone to say the problems out loud to you.  You can give them one of your past abacus worksheets to use.  Practice with single digits and double digits.  

If you can multiply on the abacus, practice that, too.


II. Play N2K with yourself or your family for 10 minutes. 

N2K...If you need to remember the game, rewatch National Number Knockout. Watch the Rules Here.  Add up your points, so you are ready to score your games at vanguard.


III.  If you did NOT bring an invention to class in

 March, please bring one this week.  YOU KNOW 

WHO YOU ARE....I plan to hunt you down.
