Cullman 7th Graders Shine at Pizitz
The seventh grade team had an OUTSTANDING day at Pizitz in many facets:
1. 1st Place Team. 3 more points and we would have been 2nd overall. When you
think about it that is just one more test problem or ciphering problem for someone.
2. Tied for 1st with Liberty Middle in Ciphering (64 Wow!) We almost meet our goal of 70.
3. Five individual places out of 10 (Colton 2nd, Matthew 3rd, Daniel 6th, Joseph 8th, Blake 10th)
4. Everyone working hard and discussing problems during ciphering. That is how you learn, by talking through and helping your teammates understand the problems.
5. Many had their highest score this year.
6. Great sportsmanship during the awards. I love to see you all cheer each other on.
7. Terrific support from our parents. You will never know just how much it means to our team to have you in the stands and at ciphering. It will mean so much to your kids later on when they remember you being there.
Also, congratulations to outstanding performances by Nik (great score of 78), Cameron and Eli for the 8th grade. The team placed fourth, but these guys did very well on a difficult test. One more week to reclaim first place at Hoover and finish the season STRONG! Only one more week to represent Cullman as a CMS Math Teamer. Give it your all. Can't wait to see how you finish next week at Hoover.
I am attaching the 7th grade results so you can see just how stellar a performance the team had on Saturday. It is hard to describe until you see the list of teams.

Math Camp and other Info
School begins on Monday, August 19. The Summer Math Review is due the first day with a test on the study guide Wednesday, August 21.
Seventh grade math team practice will be every Wednesday at 7 am beginning August 28. I will send out a breakfast schedule. Each student may bring breakfast on a Wed. for the group once a semester. We may add a Tuesday practice the week before a tournament for extra practice. It is important that EVERYONE attend so you do not feel behind the rest of the team. We will cipher the entire time and then enjoy breakfast together.
Eighth grade math team practice will be every Thursday and Friday at 7 am. Thanks to Mallory, Carley, Ian, Cameron, Trevor, Colby and Eli for helping teach at math camp. I appreciate you all very much. You did a great job! We enjoyed a nice pizza party together which was fun!
Math Camp Awards:
Around the World - Sy Hulgan
Notebook Awards - Jozi Jackson and Curt Wilson (many of the notebooks looked very nice).
Survivor Math Winner (math bee and head to head competition)- Colton Smith
Also, I stay on Mondays from 3 - 4 pm for anyone wanting extra math team practice.

Have fun and enjoy your summer,
