Yesterday, Mrs. Ezell's 5th-grade students explored dividing fractions through hands-on activities. Using paper strips and folding techniques, they observed how the pieces of a whole change when divided, helping them better understand the concept of fraction division.
Last night, we hosted our annual Literacy Night at Carver, which was especially meaningful as it coincided with National Family Literacy Month. We were fortunate to welcome several authors, community visitors, and vendors who made presentations and had the opportunity to interact with our attendees.
A special thank you goes to Patrick Oliver for organizing the event, and to the National Park Service for their generous sponsorship. We also want to acknowledge Ms. Morgan for her dedication in bringing this event to Carver, as well as the other staff members who worked tirelessly to plan and support the evening.
Thanks to their collective efforts, it was a wonderful and successful night for everyone involved!
