Being a Thinker means focusing on your problem or challenge and exploring every potential solution. Fourth graders in IB Passport used teamwork along with being a Communicator to create the tallest tower with only sheets of paper.
As you can see… half the fun is posing with your tower!!

First graders were both Inquirers and Thinkers in science this week. Our investigation question was “What makes a surface look bright or dark?” Students worked with partners to use a light source (flashlights) on surfaces around the classroom to answer this question. We discussed the function of light sources and how they make surfaces look bright. This helps us solve the presented problem of “how can we light our puppet show background scene?” 🔦🌎

Understanding the concept of place value is a big idea in fourth grade. This creative method of using size of circle to represent from one’s to tens to hundreds to thousands (and beyond!) gets the brain going! Can you find the caterpillar and guess the number? 🐛

We are pleased to announce that The International School at Mary Mae Jones is authorized by International Baccalaureate as “An IB World School.” 🏆

This proclamation comes after two years of hard work by staff and a rigorous authorization protocol by the IB organization. We are proud to be one of two IB World PYP Schools in Arkansas and one of 600 in the nation. 🎉

We celebrated with our entire student body as well as with students from all of our IB schools: Barker MS, Washington Jr HS and Bentonville HS. A certificate of authorization was presented to our Superintendent, Dr. Jones, and Assistant Superintendent, Dr. Schwanhausser and will hang in the main office.

We will continue to provide an enriched and elevated educational experience at TIS, supported by international mindedness, second language instruction, conceptual inquiry-based learning and caring relationships.

Thank you for being a part of The International School at Mary Mae Jones! 🌎 .

I spy with my little 👁️ … TIS teachers who can 👏🏻not 👏🏻 wait 👏🏻 to see 👀you tomorrow!

Our teams are fired 🔥 up 🆙 for our FIRST DAY TOMORROW! Our last (but Best) day of Welcome Week will be awesome! 🎉📣

Parents, consider your arrival plan as parking will be crazy. If you are walking up, park at the track and walk over-the parking lot is NOT your best option. If you are dropping off, be sure to review the drop off procedures; we will do our best to keep things moving! Remember your car tag for those picking up in the afternoon!

See you tomorrow! 😎🌏
