Name That Book!

Harmony Science Academy NW will be participating for the first time in “Name That Book”! This competition is being organized by Harmony School of Excellence and will be held on April 10, 2010.
Depending on the number of students who have signed up, they will be put into groups of 4 to 6 students. If there is more than one group, HSA NW will have an “in school” competition and the winners for each category, K-2, Grade 3-5, Middle School and High School will move on to the finals at Harmony School of Excellence.
Each team will have a captain and there will be reserves, in case someone is ill or will not be able to attend due to unforeseen circumstances.
This is a great way for students to get to know others from the various grades, learn to work in teams and read books at the same time! Be sure to check out the reading lists for the 4 categories. Just “click” on the links!

The following are tentative schedules for the following grades:
K–2 Mrs. Harmatuk Room 144 (dharmatuk@harmonytx.org)

The American Mathematics Competitions 10 (AMC 10)

We are excited to announce our 1st American Mathematics Competition 10 (AMC 10) contest being offered at Harmony Science Academy on Tuesday, February 9, 2010.

With these contests, there are awards in each school for the student with the highest score, certificates for high scoring students in each school, and state-wide awards. The AMC 10 contest can lead to other more selective math contests, even all the way to the United States of America team sent to International Mathematical Olympiad, the premier international high school level mathematical problem solving contest. But the real rewards come from challenging each student with mathematics that is new, different, and “outside of the box”. The problems on the contest are difficult, but designed to be within the reach of students. Even so, if your son or daughter managed to solve only one or two problems, this should be an encouragement to learn more, because these problems are meant to be more challenging than students routinely encounter in their mathematics courses.

Mathematics is increasingly important in our technological and scientific age. Taking enough mathematics in school is the gateway to jobs and careers of all kinds, even those that are not explicitly mathematical, scientific or technological. We hope that by offering these contests, we can challenge and inspire students to want to learn more mathematics. We hope that yours son or daughter enjoys the contests and will continue to take mathematics courses in high school and beyond.

For more information about the contest, please contact Mrs. Nguyen via email cnguyen@harmonytx.org


Robotics Competition

The 2010 Robotics Competition will take place on Saturday March 29th, 2010 at 2.00 pm. Competition will be held in cafeteria.
All the materials that you need will be provided by the school.

The HSANW Engineering Robotics Competition is targeted towards students in the Middle school grades and aims to promote engineering among youth. Each team in the competition has 7 week to build a robot using a Lego Mindstorms kit to overcome a challenge game. School teams do not require a robot kit to compete. Besides the exciting challenge the competition also judges the quality of the student to engineering principles. There is no limit to the size of the teams but a maximum of 3-4 students appears to be3 the norm.

Home Visits !

Our teachers are working hard, going beyond their schedule and trying to visit our parents in their homes. The goal of home visits is first of all to get parent feedback and ask about any concerns. Also to have a better communication and increase parent involvement in their child's education… This way build rapport and respect between the student, parent and the teacher which improves students' grades and behavior at school.

If you would like to schedule a homevisit please e-mail your available times to Mr.Besli at gbesli@harmonytx.org
