The Middle School Field buzzed with energy as Brentwood hosted a vibrant Probability Carnival for students in kindergarten through 2nd grade from Para Los Niños at Gratts Primary Center, one of our close community partners and a nonprofit that provides early education and support services to families in need. At this multi-divisional effort, guests enjoyed a pizza lunch, played myriad games and activities, won colorful prizes, and learned about probability.
The centerpiece of this annual event is the carnival games, which 7th grade Advanced Pre-Algebra classes spent over a month planning, fabricating, and testing in the BCIL Hub. “Some of their projects were based on real carnival games,” explained Math Teacher Andrew Davis, “and others invented ideas that seemed fun to them.”
