Roadrunner Update

 In Roadrunner Math - 7th Grade, Roadrunner Math - 8th Grade

Greetings Roadrunners!

This week we are beginning our first challenge, it is a straight forward challenge to help ease the children into our upcoming challenges.  Students are changed to come up with a unique, geometrically pleasing design that forces another person to color your design with 5 or more colors.  Rules… when coloring in the design, you want to use the least amount of colors as possible to beat the other’s design.  Colors cannot touch it’s own color on a line.

A few reminders:

-San Tan Charter School is a  nut free school.

This includes, but is not limited to, peanut or tree nut sandwiches, granola bars containing nuts, trail mixes containing nuts or nut powders, other snacks.
