Math & Science Night
April 23, 2009

Math Night began with a spaghetti dinner for students and their families. During dinner, Mr. Martin spoke about Edison's students' successful year with Stanford test scores and with TAKS 8th grade scores. He showed everyone how Edison ranks with other schools in the East area. It ended with our goal: Recognized in 2009. 

After dinner everyone adjourned to the auditorium for math activities such as measuring and mixing ingredients for pound cake and then baking and eating the cake. They also measured and mixed ingredients for trail mix. They got to take both recipes home.

Another activity was spatial recognition using a 3-D shape and then recreating that shape with blocks. After that they drew how the shape looked from the front and side. This is a skill tested in Math TAKS.
