Our
life skills class participated in an experiment to learn about the lunar
eclipse. We used a basketball, tennis
ball and a lamp to create shadows, learn about the moon, Earth and the sun. The students really enjoyed this experiment have a great understanding.
Welcome to the West Memorial Junior High Blog. This is where we showcase our students, their learning, and tell our story for others to see. We are glad you decided to be a part of it! Add your email address below to be notified each time there is a new post.

7th Grade Social Studies
This week in 7th grade Texas History, students spent time experiencing life as if they were Native Americans living in a mission in Texas in the 1700's. They were introduced to their mission by their teacher outside the room and then they walked in listening to the sounds of Gregorian Chants. After taking a vow of silence, they participated in different stations representing different aspects of the mission life - sleeping in the dormitory, working in the kitchen, separating seeds, translating words from English to Spanish, listing to the chants(Chapel) and cleaning the mission. At the end of the lesson, students had a different perspective about mission life.

Thank You First Responders
Our WMJH Cheerleaders took time on Friday, September 11th to deliver baked goods to the fire fighters and police officers who serve our Katy Community. They had an opportunity to shake their hands, deliver baked goods from the goodness of their hearts, and meet a new friend or two. If these ladies could manage to thank every public servant personally, they would! Thank you for all you do.

What it Means to be a WMJH Jaguar (from a student)
This is a post from Kylie, one of our 6th graders. We are so proud of the work she has done on "What it Means to be a Jaguar". Thank you Kylie for sharing your work with all of us.
Jags run as fast as the wind.
Jags strong, proud, and intelligent.
Jags beautiful and courageous.
Jags smart, awesome, and obedient.
Jaguars, is what we are, we stand for ourselves,
and others, and we help others and we treat
people the way we want to treated.
That is who we are, we each have our own
personality.
We shouldn't let people try to change who we are
and who you are is good. So don't stop believing in
yourself EVER!
If someone says you look weird or says anything
mean and rude to you don't believe them don't try
to hide who you are just be yourself. Remember
who you are is beautiful and that is who you are
that is what makes you, you.
Also if you are rude and inconsiderate to people
you should try to do better so you can really be
good and get more friends or be nicer to them,
and become an amazing Jag!
This all what it means to
be a WMJH Jaguar!!
