Family Science Night

Join us for Science Night!

March 13, 2013 from 6:00-  7:00 pm at Jefferson Elementary School
Mad Science will present FIRE and ICE from 6:15 - 6:45.
Children will be dazzled and entertained as Mad Science will interact with the audience. This event uses dry ice to make a foggy storm, will demonstrate how a giant beach ball floats, and some lucky volunteers get to try a "burp" potion.
Following the Mad Science presentation, the Jefferson Science Club will host several stations for children to make and take home science projects.

Hope to see you there!

Bring Your Family to School Day

We are looking forward to another "Bring Your Family to School Day" on Thursday, February 21st. The day will begin with breakfast snacks in the Multi-Purpose Room provided by the PTA. Classroom activities will begin at 8:45am. Team Brilliance will have 3 rotations. Mrs. Bahl and Mrs. Rivest will be showing you how to check out ebooks from our school library (you can do this at home!). Mr. Bagurdes will be showing off an interactive National Geographic magazine we have subscribed to and demonstrating some of the literacy skills we are working on in class. In room 310, we will be making a digital book on iPads. It should be a lot of fun and we look forward to seeing everyone!

Despite the snow, we continue to work extremely hard in room 310.

Reading: We continue to work on monitoring our comprehension, jotting down our thoughts, questions, inferences, background knowledge, new learning, etc. as we read.

Writing: We wrote a personal narrative about a time we spent with someone special.

Math: We worked on multiplication and division strategies.

Inquiry: We are learning all about insects and how they are helpful/harmful to people.
