The Inspiration Academy’s Spaghetti Fundraiser Dinner at SIPPS to benefit our upcoming student leadership field trip to Baltimore, Gettysburg, and Washington, D.C. was a huge success. The money raised will go to help pay for the students’ airfare, transportation, and lodging.
TIA students and parents enjoyed fishing and cooking together on the beautiful grounds of Catch-A-Trout in Payson. It was a nice day together exploring the fish hatchery and learning more about the various trout and other fish that are native to Arizona. Picking and eating wild blackberries and wild grapes was a favorite activity. Afterwards, TIA students and their parents enjoyed a hike along a secluded creek that leads to a lesser-known swimming hole and falls.
The students at The Inspiration Academy love learning about math! The younger students are learning to skip count, add, subtract, decompose numbers, and tell time. The older students are reviewing multi-digit multiplication, long division, prime and composite numbers, prime factorization, exponents, square roots, expanded notation, the basics of algebra, and lots of mental math challenges. The students prove their mastery of math concepts by teaching others.
