Animals

The kids are loving our new science unit on plants and animals. We have been really focusing on animals this past week. The kids enjoy taking a virtual trip of the San Diego Zoo. The zoo offers some amazing videos depicting their plants and animals featured and the numerous conservation efforts that they are implementing. We love watching the live animal cams. I think the elephants or the tigers are their favorites. I can't be sure, because our class loves to watch them all. We talk about the animals' body coverings, coloring, appetite, and habitat. Below are links to the websites.

GT Testing and TPRI Results

I will be sending home our middle of the year TPRI results as soon as possible. If you have any questions about the results, please let me know. You can call me at 903-665-2461 Opt. 4 or email me at kewommack@jeffersonisd.org. Feel free to send me a note in your child's binder as well.

All students that have been nominated for the GT program will begin testing very soon. Ms. Scott, our counselor, will conduct the testing and score the results.

Sick

There is a virus going around and several cases of the sniffles here at JPS. I know because I unfortunately caught the sniffles/sore throat bug. We always cough into our elbows, wash our hands consistently, and disinfect the tables. However, sometimes it is just not enough. If your kiddo isn't feeling well and you decide to keep him/her home, please let me know. You can call the school or shoot me an email. My email address is kewommack@jeffersonisd.org. Thank you for all that you do!

Welcome Back!

We had a great day back at school. The kids were tired, but excited to share their Christmas stories. Thank you to all the parents that helped during the Christmas party. I was so sad to have missed it. I hate that I did. Thank you for all of the pictures, gifts, and love sent my way. I appreciate all that you do for your child and our class.

Our Community

Our community projects were AMAZING! I was so proud of my kiddos. Thank you for helping them complete this activity!!!

Christmas Cards

Our class created Christmas cards to send overseas to soldiers. The kids worked really hard on their cards. I hope the soldiers enjoy them.

Veterans Day Cards

Sorry that I haven't updated in a while. We have been so busy. We created Veteran's Day cards to send to our local VFW. The kids had a great time.
