Monday, March 17th, 2025: Fifth-grade students in Mrs. Mead’s Syracuse Academy of Science math class started their geometry unit with an exciting hands-on activity—constructing robots using quadrilaterals!

Geometry can often confuse students, but Mrs. Mead found a way to make learning about four-sided figures engaging and interactive. Students explored the properties of quadrilaterals while designing and assembling their robot creations. This activity encouraged critical thinking and teamwork while reinforcing key math concepts. The activity strengthened their understanding of geometry and allowed them to showcase their artistic side.

By combining math and creativity, these young scholars gained a deeper appreciation for geometric concepts memorably and engagingly. We can't wait to see what they explore next in their math journey!

Stay tuned for more hands-on learning highlights from our Atoms!

Thursday, March 20th, 2025: Superheroes + Math = A Super Night at SAS Elementary!

Syracuse Academy of Elementary School transformed into a headquarters for superheroes in training during our exciting Superhero Math Night! Scholars and their families suited up for an action-packed, math-powered fun and adventure evening.

From decoding secret messages to solving fraction challenges, our young heroes tested their math skills. Families worked together on scavenger hunts, math fact masks, and interactive games designed to make problem-solving both thrilling and educational.

Math Night was more than just an evening of fun—it celebrated learning, teamwork, and the power of numbers! Thank you to all our superhero scholars and families for making this event a soaring success.

Thursday, March 27th, 2025: Did you know April 1st is National Greeting Card Day? This special day encourages people to share kind and loving messages through greeting cards, spreading joy and positivity.

At Syracuse Academy of Science Elementary, our students are taking this to heart by creating beautiful, heartfelt cards for the senior residents at Brookdale Bellevue Senior Living. Through their thoughtful words and creative designs, they are brightening the day for those in our community who will truly appreciate the kindness.

A simple greeting card can make a huge impact, and we are proud of our Atoms for embracing the spirit of giving and connection.
