What are the properties of matter? Just ask Mrs. Boyd's Science class. Her students are learning about the properties of matter by testing their conductivity, mass, volume and other properties.

This year has been filled with chatter of how hard 2020 has been. And, that is undoubtedly true.
But, as we observe Thanksgiving today, let's remember there have been moments of wonder, beauty, and celebration in 2020 as well.
We have met new people and learned new skills. We experienced new ways of seeing the world, impacting lives, and helping others. Let's not forget the cherished time spent with family. And, maybe, just maybe, these tough times have allowed us the sacred opportunity of growing.
One of the most beautiful things is how people have come together to support each other. Drive-by birthday parties, companies sharing resources for free or at discounts to help educators do great work even though they were facing the unknown. Parents sending extra hand sanitizer, tissues, and gift cards to show their support and love for teachers. Restaurants feeding first responders and healthcare workers. These moments have been inspiring.
Yes, there have been some gruesome moments in our world this year, but there are moments that are worth holding onto with a very tight grip.
Let's be great curators of the moments deserving our attention.
We may not be sitting around the table together, but we do hold each other in our hearts and consider each of you a blessing in our lives.

WIN (What I Need) class is a 30 minute class where all students have an opportunity to have targeted learning time based on their needs. During WIN, Mrs. Rahn's students were creating their own math games using playing cards. One group came up with a game to simplify fractions and another group game up with a multiplication war game.
They taught the game to others in the class.

Claremore Public Schools is continually committed to developing an atmosphere of trust among parents and the community in our ability to provide not only a positive and enriching educational experience but a safe place for students to thrive.
That is why we have partnered with @FamilyZoneUSA, a leading provider of cyber safety products and education, to ensure your kids are cyber safe while at school. Claremore Public Schools is already using Family Zone to block inappropriate content and to identify red flag search terms from students. However, students do need access to sites like youtube for institutional purposes. Once on those sites students can be exposed to content that may be questionable. It is important that caregivers monitor students when they are on their devices.
As a parent or caregiver of our school district, you receive free access to the Family Zone Cyber Safety Hub, which includes articles, videos, courses, and more to help monitor and educate on various cyber threats, apps, etc.
This week's #TechTipTuesday is access to this free service. Click “sign up” below to get ongoing materials and education from the platform we trust to manage cyber safety across our entire district.

"My name is Jessica Lee and I teach English Language Arts for 6th and 7th grade at WRJH. My alma mater is South College in Knoxville, Tennessee where I earned a Bachelor's in Science for Elementary Education K-8. Teaching has been my career for 6 years, and this is my first year at WRJH. After many years in the military (GO NAVY!) I realized that I missed my home state of Oklahoma, so I am excited to be back where I feel welcomed, respected, and a part of the WRJH family."

Meet Bethany Doerksen-Klopp, Ph.D.
Certified School Psychologist
Dr. DK here! I hold a doctorate from OSU in Educational Psychology with an emphasis in School Psychology.
My husband, Dustin, and I were high school sweethearts and have been married for 12 years. We have two human hooligans (8 months old and 3 years old) and two fur babies.
This is my 6th year working with the amazing staff and students at Roosa Elementary and Will Rogers Junior High School. Now that I've been here a few years, I love that I've gotten to see my students grow and develop as they graduate to junior high!
If you visit my office, you'll see the quote, "we can't control the winds, but we can adjust our sails," decorating my wall. For a Type A control freak like me, it's a great reminder that the only things we actually have control over in life are our own thoughts, words, and actions. There will always be some things we can control and some things we cannot. Staying focused on what we can control will help relieve stress and anxiety before it gets too overwhelming.

Forces, Impulse, and Momentum! It is very important to protect the head because the brain controls the whole body. Just like the skull protects the brain, an egg’s shell protects what’s inside: the yolk! Our 8th grade Physical Science classes were placed into teams. Each team got an egg. They pretend the egg is their head. The challenge was to create a container that will protect an egg (head) from cracking or breaking from a high fall. This project teaches students about the relationships between force and momentum.

Mrs. Rice's 6th and 7th grade Geography classes worked on a collaborative project for Veterans Day this year. They discussed the history of the day and why it is still important to us now. Almost all of the students have a family member or know someone who has served, so we wanted to show our appreciation with this project. Thank you to all who have served for our country!
