PUSD Math Field Day 2005


The 2005 PUSD Math field day was held at the John Muir School. At 8 in the morning the teams of 4 gathered possibly discussing strategies, and getting ready for the 5 multiple answer question sets they are supposed to solve in the next 4 hours.
Typically there are two teams from each grade from most schools.


For the prize distribution, the auditorium was full. So much, so that they asked people to leave. Failing that, children from 4th grade and their parents had to leave after their part of the function.


They gave prizes to all teams which secured a place in the top 20% of each of the 5 papers (number sense, geometry, algebra, statistics, and problem solving).


McKinley group in the crowd


McKinley B from 5th grade got a joint first with another team from Don Benito. 2 children from each team now form a team to compete at the county level on June 4.
Congrats to Mr. Rojas. Congrats to Jay Mahabal, Anton Dyudin, Marcos Cousineau and Jordan Villalobos (+ David Guerra). Also congrats to the other McKinley team: Michael Latour, Jarrod Suda, Hanan Worku, Sze Yin (Eunice) Ng (+ Katherine Bolten-Ford).
Jay and Anton will represent McKinley for PUSD on June 4 now (with the Don Benito representatives).


Felicitation at the PUSD meeting. The Don Benito team is seen too. Ms Q and Percy Clarke grace the occasion.
