It might look like Jack’s magic beanstalk has taken up residence at Midkota Elementary, but Mrs. Quanbeck has been helping young minds to grow instead. Two years ago, Mrs. Quanbeck took part in a pilot program for Reflex Math. The program is meant to help students in grades 2-4 develop automaticity with their math facts. After experiencing AMAZING results that first year, our teachers asked if we could continue the program. Mrs. Quanbeck has spearheaded these efforts and this year students who meet their goals and get a “green light” earn a balloon towards our Reflex tower. Our goal was the ceiling, and we made it TODAY! Keep it up students and thank you Mrs. Quanbeck and classroom teachers for making this learning opportunity a reality for our students. :)
