Math Tips

    A team of our classroom teachers came up with some valuable tips to help you and your child practice their math Skills. Every month you can expect to see either a literacy or a math tip to help at home.

    • Review math facts at home, in the car, waiting in line, or during other downtime
    • You can use a deck of cards or dice to practice too!
    • Provide your child with verbal math problems. “Take the number five; add six; multiply by three; subtract three; divide by five. What’s your answer?” Speak slowly at first until your child gets better at solving these mental problems
    • Practice skip counting by 2’s, 3’s, 4’s, 5’s, 6’s, etc.
    • Have your child go on Quinney’s library webpage and play some math games!
    • Or check out your child’s google classroom! There may be fun math games there too!

    Beginning second semester (Tuesday, Jan. 25th), we will be returning to allowing students to bring individual-packaged, store bought birthday treats to school and with Valentine's Day coming up quickly, students will also be able to bring Valentines to share with their classmates.

    Perseverance Family Activity

    Work together to create an “I Will” statement to help your children live out the value of Perseverance. For example: “I will fall down 10 times and get up 11.” Once they have their own “I Will” intentions, invite them to write them down and post them on the bathroom mirror that they use, so they can see it and be reminded every time they brush their teeth.





    Monthly Student Raffle Prizes


    Hello Quinney Families,

    We have increased the number of PBIS raffle prizes the past few months since there are so many great students at EQ earning tickets for showing the ABC of Respect, Responsibility, and Being Ready to Learn throughout our school.  We are in need of some more items for prizes for March, April, and May.  We’ve made it easy for you by creating a wishlist on Amazon. You can order directly from Amazon and the item can be shipped to Quinney. Just click  here Quinney ABC’s Raffle Prizes  to bring you to the wish list. When you checkout, select to have it shipped to Electa Quinney. Please check yes to the gift receipt so we can make sure to thank you for your support. Thank you so much for considering our request.

    Community Events and Activity Flyers

    There are a great many worthy undertakings in the Kaukauna Area School District that understandably deserve public support. The Board of Education/School District assist with this process in providing notice to students and/or families of certain non-school-related community activities/programs that are for public school-age students (that apply and meet policy conditions). Click here or visit the school district website to view the up to date list of events and flyers
