Benton Community School District

Atkins Elementary - Kinders are learning about comparing lengths at common starting points using different units of measurement. Second graders are currently working on subtracting numbers greater than one hundred. Students are using place value charts and the standard algorithm to support their answer. Make sure to ask your Bobcat what s/he is working on in math!

Keystone Elementary - Lots of excitement throughout the building on our 2nd day back from fall break. Today students enjoyed lunch by candlelight for their all-building PBIS reward. Keep leading with safe, caring, respectful, and responsible habits!

It was a great performance last night!

AK read the story Stone Soup, and as per the book, everyone contributed to making a pot of stone soup in our classroom! Children brought all types of items (corn, celery, spices, green beans, etc) to add to our soup. ‘It was YUMMY!’ And we all tried it!! Atkins Elementary

Mrs. Redlinger has her students using their place value charts to add double digit numbers together. The place value chart helps reinforce what the true quantities of numbers are as students work to compute the sum. Keystone Elementary

Great job!
