Math Scroll Contest!

Our math scrolls are finished!  I recently challenged our class to a contest to see who could write to the highest number on his/her math scroll.  A math scroll is a number of glued together number grids where the a student starts at zero and writes numbers in order.  It is rolled up around an empty paper towel tube.  Every student was required to write to 200.  However, many students chose to go beyond 200... way beyond! 

This contest has been ongoing for a number of weeks and finally came to a close last Friday.  Check out our math scroll winners below!

Trey is our first place winner.  He wrote his numbers to 2,820.  That is

an all time high for first grade for as long as the scroll contest has taken place!

Here are the hard working winners who placed in the contest (left to right):

Sixth Place:  Lucy (wrote to 1,103)

Fifth Place:  Taya (wrote to 1,117)

Fourth Place:  Landon (wrote to 1,150)

Third Place:  Henrik (wrote to 1,361)

Second Place: Brennan (wrote to 1,389)

First Place:  Trey (wrote to 2,820)

Look how long these scrolls are!

Here is our whole class with our number scrolls stretched out.

Wow, they are as long as the hallway!  Great job, everyone!!
