Fifth and eighth grade students in the gifted and talented program participated in a shark tank project.
Students had to come up with an innovation or invention to present in front of the "sharks". They had to provide research, create an advertisement and develop a persuasive speech when asking the sharks to invest in their product, according to their teacher, Chastity Snow.
The sharks consisted of juniors and seniors who volunteered to observe presentations. They scored students based on a rubric and provided feedback. The team of sharks got together and selected three individuals/ groups to advance to the next level. Our plan is to have these three groups present to community members, Snow said.
Winners of the shark tank were Johnathan Pirtle, Kelsey Hash, Hailey Pirtle and Jaxon Routon.
The volunteer judges were Cameron Butcher, Trey Stucker, Jaden Lark, Ayden Taylor, Rileigh Darnold, Kylee Kinman and Jack Chowning.
Cartmell Elementary students in Ms. Southworth, Ms. Evans and Mr. Courtney's classes held a poetry slam recently. The students read their own poems about seasons and the group learned the proper response to a poetry reading is to snap rather than clap.
Carroll County High School students had a great time at the Junior-Senior Prom on Saturday night. (More photos on the District Facebook page.)
