Mr. McClintock recently brought his knowledge of meteorites, as well as many specimens, to share with Jefferson's 5th-graders.
How lucky is our school to still benefit from all things "Mr. Mac"?!

Jefferson's 5th-grade visited Pisgah Marsh in North Webster. Students participated in three different stations: birdwatching and identification, tree and leaf identification, and how soil is different at high points versus low points, which included taking soil samples at both high points and low points to show the different layers of the soil and how it separates.

Kindergarten students recently celebrated the end of a unit about Community Helpers. First, they took a community walk to start thinking about community and what kind of people are in a community. Then over several weeks, various community helpers came in to talk to the students about what they do, tools they use, and the children were able to ask them questions. Students met many different helpers, including an eye doctor, dance teacher, engineer, professor, and more.
During this time, students dove into five main categories of community helpers: those who keep us safe, keep us healthy, give us information, provide goods and services, and build and repair. Students were given a category, and they worked together to create a poster of their category and practiced presenting it.
The culmination of study was the Community Helpers Showcase, where community helpers and parents came to visit and see all the things the children had worked hard to learn. The students even created cards to say thank you to our community helpers and gave them out at the showcase.

Jefferson students have been taking advantage of our beautiful weather to head down to Cherry Creek for some hands-on learning, led by Mr. Chuck and Mr. McClintock, with the assistance of our school's STEM Ambassadors. Students have previously prepared by studying macroinvertebrates and simulating exploration of the creek. Now, they are actually at Cherry Creek, finding and identifying macroinvertebrates...FOR REAL! How cool is THAT?!

Jefferson's "Citizens of the Month" for April had the perfect May day to throw in a line on the canal at The Village at Winona. Pleased smiles (and photographic evidence) suggest that fish were indeed caught!

With guidance by Mr. Chuck and Mr. Mac, kindergarten and 1st grade students are continuing their preparation for an upcoming visit to Cherry Creek by donning waders and using nets to scoop up "practice macroinvertebrates," all from the comfort of the gym lobby! #ExperienceWCS #WCSJeffersonSTEM
