How do you get kids excited about multiplication?

Just add some competition to the mix. That’s how third graders at Unqua

Elementary School in the Massapequa School District are memorizing their times tables.

Students in Samantha Berna’s class have been

welcoming their peers from other third grade classes for knockout math battles.

Students compete oneon-one as a multiplication problem appears on the

electronic display board.

The child who calls out the correct answer first stays in the competition.

It keeps going until one class is fully knocked out.

The intra-hallway rivalry has continued as students have been expanding their number knowledge, recently learning multiplication tables up to 6.

Ms. Berna uses digital flash cards through

3

Mathematicians Match Off For Multiplication Ascend Math. She said that the competitions have encouraged students to practice multiplication facts on their own at home, so they are ready for a challenge their third grade peers.

Helping others has been a mission for students in the Massapequa School District for Thanksgiving.

Berner Middle School’s student council, under the direction of advisers Denise Robertson and Teresa Ferreira organized a food drive, collecting hundreds of nonperishable goods to help local families. On Nov. 8, the student leaders

packed up the donations and traveled to Our Lady of Lourdes Church in Massapequa Park, where they helped stock the food pantry and learned about the impact the donations will have.

The student councils at East Lake and Fairfield elementary schools also spearheaded food drives. At East Lake, nonperishable

food and paper goods were collected for the food pantry at St. Rose of Lima Church in Massapequa.

Fairfield’s donations went to the Island Harvest food bank. Students from both schools made signs to hang around the buildings to promote the food drives.

Lockhart Elementary School not only held a food drive, but fifth graders

also decorated paper bags with fall or Thanksgiving designs and made cards.

The bags were filled with
