Elmont's Got Talent!

on Tuesday, April 21, 2009


Elmont is full of talented students! The K-3 talent show on March 12, 2009 proved that to be true. There were singers and dancers, piano players, drummers and tumblers. Some students even provided comedic relief with a skit and song. The athletic talents were shown as students jumped rope and hula-hooped across the stage or performed karate moves for all to see. These talented Elmont Bobcats were so impressive!

Family Math Night

on Tuesday, April 7, 2009





Elmont hosted its first Family Math Night on Thursday, April 2, 2009. The evening consisted of 8 different sessions on various math topics. Students and parents could learn new math games that can be played at home throughout the summer to help keep those math skills sharp or perhaps enjoy children’s literature with math themes and activities to tie in. The clicker system that was purchased by the PTO was used to demonstrate how math work can be fun, while fifth and sixth grade students and teachers showed how “Algebra is Child’s Play.” The computer lab was open so that parents could access numerous math websites that can be used at home to aid in the area of math. And don’t forget the cookies at the end of the night! Overall, we had a wonderful turnout and a great night of learning at Elmont.
