Students in grades 3-8 had a trivia battle yesterday, recreating the popular game show "The Floor" in their classrooms. Contestants competed in head-to-head duels to identify categories that a series of images belonged to. The categories included candy, sea animals, fast food, Disney characters, our faith, mammals, science, inventions, Christmas, & more!
