Jefferson Elementary School -

Mrs. King’s class has been busy learning about maps and different landforms! To wrap up our unit, students got creative and made their own homemade maps using graham crackers and icing.

Their maps included mountains, land, and water features. They had so much fun showing off what they learned! 🏔️🌊 #JeffersonCUSD1

The PE Jefferson Fall Olympics ended last week. Coach and Ms. Lowell want to thank the students for their efforts and sportsmanship. The main events were Frisbee long toss, Frisbee accuracy toss, bean bag toss, potato bag races, and three-legged races.

Mrs. Snider’s class was busy exploring whether air is matter during their science lab! Students had fun conducting experiments, making observations, and learning that even though we can’t see air, it still takes up space and has mass! 🌬️🧪 #JeffersonCUSD1
