🧼✨ Healthy Habits in Action! ✨🧼 Miss McWhorter’s 4th Grade Class enjoyed a special presentation from the Jackson County Health Department this week! Students learned about the importance of good hygiene, including why washing your hands with warm water is so important and how quickly germs can spread. Our 4th graders are now hygiene experts and ready to put their healthy habits into practice every day! 👏👐💧

This week in 7th and 8th Grade Math, students jumped into their new units with some engaging, hands-on games!
The 8th graders played Human Transformations on a life-size coordinate plane, exploring translations, rotations, and reflections using their own bodies—making math active and memorable.
Meanwhile, 7th graders enjoyed Integer War, where they worked in teams to add positive and negative number cards. The player with the sum closest to zero won the round!
These fun activities helped students deepen their understanding while fostering teamwork and enthusiasm for math.
