Jerry Knight STEM Academy

Many great things are happening here at JKSA this new semester. 6th-grade learners explored how Ancient Greece influenced modern architecture in Social Studies. In Design Time, they rotated through stations, participated in a Model UN, and visited with guest speakers from Carollo to learn about the source of Mansfield's water. 7th-grade learners taught other learners about stars and applied the characteristics of an argument using the game Apples to Apples. In Texas History, they reviewed the causes of the Texas Revolution with the game "word sneak" and used pictures to share opinions on whether Texas was justified in rebelling against Mexico. Lastly, our CES class got busy planning a park trash bash, and our Flight and Space class tested paper airplanes outside. If this is how the semester starts, I can't wait to see what else is in store for the second semester. Enjoy a nice, long three-day weekend!

We have TWO days to reach our goal! Check out these awesome new prizes.
