'QuickNews TV' students dissecting a cow eyeball
  • MATHEWS

In what is now a tradition at Mathews, second graders got to dissect a cow’s eyeball. The students were tasked with trying to find out how similar cow eyes are to human eyes. Using a magnifying glass, a scalpel, and some scissors and tweezers, they watched a video showing how to dissect the eyeball safely while observing what was happening at each step. The students and the teachers, who were new to this activity, all learned a lot in this unforgettable lesson.

'QuickNews TV' students in front of camera

If you want to watch Nixa athletic events, you usually have a choice between staying home or going to one of our local restaurants and watching it through the eyes of our Nixa students and their work on Nixa Live. What started out with one person running a camera and zero announcers has now grown into an amazing multi-camera production with equipment and technology that is comparable to a professional broadcast. The high schoolers are gaining experience they could only hope to get years down the road. Thank you Air Services for supporting Nixa Live!

'QuickNews TV' students working together
  • JTSD

To help students learn decimals and place value, the 5th grade teachers at JTSD brought back an old lesson from a colleague. Most kids have eaten at a restaurant like Steak ’n Shake, which offers burgers, fries, and shakes. So the teachers thought, what better way to make learning about money fun and engaging than to bring in a real menu? The students partnered up and took turns ordering and playing cashier. Adding the totals together helped them practice keeping their numbers aligned with the decimal point and made the lesson exciting and one that the kids wouldn’t soon forget.
