School Contest
Asks For Heroes
"Who is your hero?"
Thai's the question Union Pri
mary School's Que Pasa? magazine
is asking students at the school.
"Today, the problem is most of
the heroes kids look up to arc nega
tive or wrong influences," she said.
But finding a good hero, she said,
can help youngsters build values in
life.
Any Union Primary School stu
dent can enter the contest by writing
a letter, telling who is his or her hero
and why. The letter may have as few
as eight words or as many as 100
words. It must be signed on the back
by the child's parent or guardian.
The completed letter is to be put
in the Que Pasa? contest box in the
hall at school no later than 3 p.m.
Friday, April 3.
The winning entry and selected
others will be published in a special
edition of the magazine in May.
Winners will receive special gifts
and recognition.

Fourth graders at Bolivia School,
as well as students at Lincoln
Elementary in Lcland and Union
Primary near Shallotte, brought in
homework projects involving the
number 100 and look part in activi
ties throughout the day that related
in some way to 100.
Fourth grade teachers at Bolivia
School gave homework assignments

that varied from students locating
placcs on a map 100 miles from
their home to calculating how old a
1 00-month-old person would be.
Students chose from a list of 100
activities. They now know how long
it takes their heart to beat 100 times
and what day was 100 days from
last Friday.
Friday morning students lighted
100 candles on a cake shaped like
the number 100, which was divided
into 100 slices and served later in
the day, said school publicist
Thommi Arnold.
In the afternoon, teachers Jenni
?
Johnson, Samcsa Goodson and
Thclma Fullwood took the entire
fourth grade outside for field activi
ties. Competing in the 100- yard dash
and 100-yard baton relay, students
learned the value of 100 when it
came to distance.
They also learned how to pop 100
balloons, with instructions to find an
empty chair and sit on their balloon
until it popped.
At Lincoln Primary School,
Principal Joseph Butler said students
schooiwide participated in similar
activities, as well as a fire drill at the
100th minute of the school day.
Some students popped 100 ker
nels of popcorn, calculating how
many kernels popped and how many
didn't pop.
Butler led a parade of 99 students
through classrooms, just so other
students could get an idea of what
100 people looked like. Students
brought in batches of 100
things ? including strips of nails.
Next time students hear or see the
number 100, predicted Butler,
they'll have a lot better idea of what
that number represents.
