News From the Junior High
Science
Recently the 8th grade Science classes made and launched model rockets as part of a unit on forces. Students were able to learn about the forces of lift, thrust, friction, and force interactions in a hands-on manner with this project. This activity has taken place for 31 consecutive years in Jr High Science. Many parents may remember doing this project in Mr. Oney's Jr High Science class.
Multimedia
Students in Mrs. Oney’s 7th & 8th grade Multimedia classes have explored some of the tools in Adobe Photoshop. Students used iMovie and Biteable to create informational and promotional videos for Red Ribbon Week, our school musical and other events in our district. Flyers, posters, Instagram posts, and tweets have been created using Canva. Students have created their own Google Site and have added several blog entries to their Google Site. Students will be adding more to their website as time passes. On the day of the 8th grade rocket launch, students used digital cameras and camcorders to capture footage and images of the launch. Students have used Quizlet and Gimkit, two free websites that provide learning tools, which include flashcards, study, and game modes. In Multimedia, students used Quizlet and Gimkit to review vocabulary words before a test. In December, students will explore the applications Adobe Spark and Keynote, allowing them to create short videos, web pages, and slideshows to use in other classes in the future. (Students are pictured using Gimkit to review Photoshop Vocabulary.)
