One School, One Book

Administrators at Cardinal Elementary School have unveiled the selection for the One School, One Book reading event taking place in the spring. The school will be reading “The World According to Humphrey” by Betty G. Birney.

One School, One Book is a program designed to create a shared reading experience within a single school community. A chapter book is chosen, every student receives a copy, and every family reads that book at home for the duration of the program. Activities at school coordinate, promote, and enrich the shared reading experience.

Academic Challenge

Cardinal High School will be competing against Mogadore and Chippewa on May 7 at WEWS Channel 5’s Academic Challenge television show. Representing Cardinal High School will be Matthew Miller, Chloe Dubasik and Anthony Ludlow.

The show will air at 11:30 a.m. on WEWS Channel 5. The show will also be viewable on Roku, Amazon Fire and other streaming devices. Afterwards, the show will be posted on the WEWS Channel 5 website.

Science With Mr. Z

Claire Zurbuch  (Mr. Z ) recently conducted a science lesson with first-graders at Jordak Elementary School showing the science behind a swinging pendulum. Each group of students had a small swinging string with a small plastic toy on the end of the string. They counted how many swings were done in one minute with the one toy. They then made changes to the pendulum by adding one more toy and later made the pendulum longer. The number of swings in one minute was mainly due to the length of the pendulum.
