What do you get when you combine almost 120 second graders, 2,500 dominoes and 813 jelly beans?! RYNJ Second Grade Family Math Night, of course! This past Monday evening, the lunchroom at RYNJ was booming with fun and interactive math games. Parents and grandparents challenged their second graders to play three entertaining games that were facilitated by their second grade teachers. Using colorful beads, dominoes and double-dice to play, who could have guessed they would be working on their reasoning ability, critical thinking skills and improving their problem-solving abilities all at same time? Not to mention the famous jelly bean jar estimation contest! Mazal tov to Ilan Wasserlauf, who had the closest estimation of 800 and took home the grand prize of an entire jar of 813 jelly beans! A jar of jelly beans wasn’t the only parting gift, as each student took home a set of double-dice and fantastic memories to share. Looking forward to many more fun-filled family math nights!
