Chances for Further Learning in the Community!


As our school development plan for this year has a strong focus on math,
Copperfield community and school have been given the opportunity to work with an amazing artist and teacher named Sharon Fortowsky. We would like to engage our Copperfield families with a math task that you can work on together. You may have seen some of the electrical boxes in Copperfield with some beautiful paintings on them.  One of them is by the Shell station and the other is on 52nd.  Sharon has painted these boxes with a purpose and is encouraging parents and students to take a look at the boxes as there are math riddles that go along with the paintings. A short article with the riddle has been posted in the Copperfield-Mahogany community association newsletter Copperfield Mahogany Community newsletter
The first clues so far have also been posted on the community facebook page Copperfield Mahogany Facebook page.   Because it might be difficult for families to get over to the physical boxes, there is a link to the riddles and pictures of the boxes for your family to take a look at.  We encourage you to discuss with your child any math that your child sees on these two boxes.  Please copy the link below to take a look at the three riddles that have been given so far.
