Square Root Day is celebrated on a day where the first two digits in the date are the square root of the last two digits. That was the case on Monday: 4-4-16. The next one will be 5-5-25, that is in nine years, which means Mrs. Mary Pears, Montgomery Catholic sixth grade students will be in college.
Mrs. Pears had a fun day full of squares planned for her students including fun square root activities during math, a square root lesson on Khan Academy, square root models with Cheez-Its, and Square Root BINGO, even square dancing during P.E. class.
Another way the class celebrated was by eating "square" foods. Parents provided fun "square" food and snacks for the day, everything from square brownies, Rice Krispie Treats, Triscuits with square cheese slices, graham cracker squares, and even root beer in cups with square bottoms! The day was filled with math fun squared.
The Montgomery Catholic St. Bede sixth grade class members that celebrated Square Root Day on 4-4-2016 are: Tess Barwick, James Bender, Ethan Binns, McKinley Boyd, Cecelia Crawford, Samantha Day, Ansley Erhardt, Ailish Gilbert, Brandon Hickley, Trey Holmes, Michael Jones, Layne Jordan, Aidan McNeely, Will Noell, Matthew Reardon, Samuel Rogers, Noble Seale, Gibson Souriya, Alex Thurman, Alex Wieser, and Hart Yost.
