MARCH MAMMAL MADNESS: FAMILY EDITION!
Move over basketball…
There’s a new kind of March Madness coming to town!
Each year, scientists at Arizona State University host March Mammal Madness (MMM) — a fun, science-based tournament where animals from around the world (both living and extinct!) compete in a bracket-style challenge.
But here’s the twist…
👉 It’s not just about who is “bigger” or “stronger.”
👉 Winners are determined using real science!
👉 Habitat, behavior, adaptations, and survival traits all matter.
🧬 How Your Family Can Participate
Take a quick look at the rules and the species list.
Talk through your predictions together.
Build your bracket here:
👉 https://www.mmmbrackets.com/index.php?invite_pool_pin=7853
Submit your bracket before Monday, March 9th (Wildcard Round).
Final brackets lock by Wednesday, March 11th when the “Money Mammals” compete!
A BearKit Family Challenge
Which animal will rise to the top?
Which DMS family will have the most accurate bracket?
Will it be:
The fastest?
The most camouflaged?
The most cooperative?
Or the most surprising?
We can’t wait to see which families become our DMS March Mammal Madness Champion!
Let the science begin! 🔬🏆
¡Nos complace invitarlos a una oportunidad especial solo para padres de estudiantes de ESL!
El lunes 23 de febrero, durante las conferencias de padres y maestros en la escuela secundaria, ofreceremos una capacitación gratuita sobre cómo usar un programa gratuito en la computadora diseñado específicamente para ayudar a los padres a aprender inglés.
Este programa se puede usar en casa y es una excelente manera para que los padres practiquen y mejoren sus habilidades en inglés.
Ofreceremos dos sesiones de capacitación:
• 4:00 p.m.
• 5:30 p.m.
Cada sesión durará aproximadamente una hora y se llevará a cabo en el Salón 100 de la escuela secundaria.
Les recomendamos que asistan a una de estas sesiones para aprender cómo acceder y utilizar este recurso tan útil.
Si tienen alguna pregunta, no duden en comunicarse con nosotros. ¡Esperamos verlos allí!
Atentamente,
Jeff Cudney
