The week of January 25-31 has been designated Nebraska School Board
Recognition week, and I feel honored to recognize our six member board.
As citizen leaders, these individuals are charged with the unenviable task
of making tough decisions on a myriad of complex educational issues.
In my opinion, they do an excellent job balancing their responsibility
to the district patrons with their responsibility to the students, staff and
parents of Malcolm Public Schools. I feel fortunate to serve a board
that is student-centered and committed to providing an outstanding
education to every student that walks through our doors. With that, I
would like to thank and recognize our board for their time, effort and
commitment to education and the community at large.
Ryan Terwilliger
Special thank you to our retired President
Don Densberger for faithfully serving on the
Malcolm School Board for 21 years.
Chromebooks in 5th Grade
By: Mr. Mahoney
Late in the first semester the 5th grade got a set of chromebooks to use in the
classroom.
Chromebooks are laptops with the chrome operating system that are being used in
schools throughout the world.
The set in the 5th grade has 24 machines that we share. By using free software
from the chrome store students have been able to screencast, receive and hand
in assignments electronically, and continue to work on their keyboarding skills.
From the teacher point of view, I am excited to have students using the technology
to share their what they are learning in many different ways. Students can be
creative and use a tool they are very comfortable with. Using the chromebooks in a
classroom setting also allows the students to see technology being used in a way other
than “gaming”.
Another benefit we have realized is the amount of paper we are saving. By doing so much
electronically we estimate we are saving between 100 and 200 sheets of paper a week!
The students and teachers in grade 5 say “Thank you” to MPS for allowing us to have access
to this and all the technology tools we have.
ATTENTION HOME SCHOOL FAMILIES
In accordance with the requirements of 92 NAC 51, this public
announcement is to invite homeschooling families to a meeting
where they will have an opportunity to participate in the
discussion of a plan for Child Find and the provision of
special education services to children with disabilities who
will attend a nonpublic school option during the 2015-2016
school year. This meeting will be offered at two different
times at the Malcolm Public Schools Business Office. The
first will be February 5th @ 9:00AM and the second will be
May 20th @ 4:00PM. Please contact Jon Squier, Director of
Student Services at 402-796-2151 ext:482 with any questions.
News From Ms. Anderson
Hello from the Westfall Computer Lab! I have been asked for some recommendations
activities your children can do at home to help enhance their learning
of online
o
instead of just playing video or computer games with no educational value.
in
These are also linked from the webpage we use in the computer lab at school:
T
http://daynaanderson.wix.com/computers.
h
TypingWeb
(typingweb.com) is the typing program all fourth through sixth
T
graders
use, and it will be introduced to the third graders this quarter. The
g
sstudents have recently discovered how important it is to memorize the location
of the keys without looking. We use covers at school, but you can easily place a
kitchen
or hand towel over your child’s hands while he or she types to achieve the
kitc
same results.
Another one of the students’ favorites is ABCya (abcya.com). The activities are
separated by grade levels and provide a wide range of concepts and topics for the kids to enjoy.
Many of the older students enjoy the activities on Cool Math Games (http://www.coolmathgames.com/) as well.
SumDog (sumdog.com) provides older kids with an assortment of math problems within
each activity. The sixth graders all have their own log ins, but any other student can use our
subscription accounts (provided thanks to last year’s sixth graders winning the Southeast
Nebraska competition). The user name is student## (any number between 11 and 40 can be
substituted for the ##), the password is the same as we use to log into the computers at school
(your child uses that password each time he or she logs in for class) and the school code is
“westfall”. We will hopefully participate in another competition in January or February.
Those sites should provide you with more of a sense of security knowing your students are
using technology as a learning tool all while being entertained. Have fun and learn a lot!

LIFE SKILLS
BY: MRS. NEUJAHR
Students who participate in the Life Skills Curriculum here at Malcolm worked on
a special project at the end of last semester to raise money. Students made dog
treats to sell to the staff here at school. This project allowed students to work on
a variety of skills while making a fun recipe. By making the dog treats students
had the opportunity to practice following a modified recipe. They had to follow
the directions for each step so that they would turn out right. Students practiced
measuring ingredients, using the oven and kitchen safety during this project as
well. Students practiced counting and money skills as they packaged the treats and
prepared to sell them. This money will be used for a fun community outing later this
semester. Students had a great time doing this project and quite a few dogs got an extra
treat for the Holidays.
Attention
Malcolm Speech Alumni, Parents,
Friends, and Patrons of the Community
The 1st Annual First Friday Forensics Fest will be held on Friday, March 6.
This meet will begin in the morning and run through the day. We are looking
for help in the areas of concessions, hospitality room, room/door monitors,
tab room, extemp room, judging, and ballot room. If you would like to join
the festivities, please contact Tami Maytum at tamra.maytum@mps148.org
MRS. SAMUELSON’S MATH CLASSES
We start off the second semester with a welcome addition to the classroom.
This semester Ms. Hayley Andersen will be student teaching in the math
Th
department. Ms. Andersen comes to us from Pilger, NE and is a future
d
UNL
graduate. If you run into Ms. Andersen, please introduce yourself
U
and
a help us make her feel welcome at Malcolm Public Schools.
As
A always, I begin the second semester with all of my classes having to
prove
they can make and count change. Each student will be given 4
p
scenarios which include what someone may order at the concession stand
sc
and the amount of money they would pay with. The students must total
the items (in their head), pick up the correct change (by counting up),
up th
then count it back correctly. Every student must get a 100 on this test or
and the
continue retaking it until they do. Don’t be afraid to ask a student at the concession stand to count
back your change so they can put their skills to good use and/or don’t be afraid to compliment or
acknowledge when a student does count back your change.
As for other topics being taught, all classes are busy graphing and writing equations of lines or
parabolas. The Algebra 1 and general math classes are reviewing slope, graphing lines (using
slope and y intercept or using the intercepts), and writing the equations of lines (given slope
and y intercept, point and slope, 2 points, and/or a point with an equation that is parallel or
perpendicular to it). The Algebra 2 classes are reviewing graphing quadratic equations and
inequalities (parabola), writing quadratic equations, and the solutions to quadratic inequalities.
The math 7 class is generating t-charts (needed to graph lines and parabolas), graphing lines and
parabolas, and being introduced to slope.
Lastly, just a reminder to those of you who have internet access, there is a great tutorial that goes
along with our math series. The website is: go.hrw.com. Once you are on the website, scroll
down to the bottom left and type in the homework keyword (found on your student’s worksheet)
in the resource box. You will then be able to pull up videos on how to do the homework problems.
One other tutorial websites with video is www.khanacademy.org.
