Halloween- themed math 🎃
Me Merriott’s homeroom celebrated Halloween with a pizza party and some in room trick or treating!
JAMP students considered what would happen if their body didn't have bones through this engaging lesson.
In the activity, Skeleton Hand, students combine science with art: they trace their hands, then add see-through bones to their picture, making their own skeleton hand.
Lesson shows them how bones and joints help give our hand shape and help us move! Perfect project for Halloween.
Excited to see all the JADE students when we resume in-person instruction tomorrow!
JAMP Upper Level Halloween Party
We got our EYES on you! 👀 Check out the JAMP hallways for our new decorations.
Messy hands making neat art projects! Our elementary and middle school students used casting plaster for this paper maché project.
Looking forward to seeing all the JADE students back in person tomorrow!
Just a reminder JADE is back to in-person learning tomorrow, Wednesday 10/28/2020! We are so excited to see all of our staff and students! Be sure to bring your completed work to school to be graded!
JAMP is discovering why apples are different colors and tastes but all still delicious!
