DT Cox Elementary School Home

(3/28) Congratulations to the following students for receiving positive office referrals this week! Keep up the good work!

(3/28) Mrs. Hodum's third graders practiced reading fluency by playing a super fun card game called “Popped”. They all have loved this new game!

(3/28) Mrs. Chrestman’s fourth grade students went on a field trip to Itawamba Crossroads Ranch in Fulton, where they participated in “Sculpt and Sprout Day.” Students got to make their own thumbprint clay pots, plant seeds in the greenhouse, hunt for eggs, and a variety of other activities and games. It was a fun day of learning and enjoying the spring weather!

(3/27) Ms. Luther's students practiced true multiplication and division facts by playing multiplication/division bingo.

(3/27) Students in Mrs. Boone's room engaged in various activities centered around their novel study on "Wish"- reading a chapter in the novel, completing a comprehension check assignment, & analyzing text evidence from the book to support character traits they inferred about different characters.

(3/25) Students in Mrs. Ball's class worked together to place letters in the same layout as a qwerty keyboard. They enjoyed this activity, and said it was harder than they thought it would be!

(3/21) After benchmarks, Mrs. Hodum's students practiced sequencing and writing steps in a process by reading a recipe for Dirt Cups, and following it for a yummy snack!

(3/21) Mrs. Jenna Patterson, a former DTC teacher, donated Norwex cleaning supplies and money to help DT Cox rebuild classrooms. Thank you, Mrs. Patterson!!!

(3/19) Students in Mrs. Steele’s class are working together in teams to find answers to help them prepare for the upcoming benchmark. Teams got to shoot a ball for points for correct answers.

(3/18) Ms. Shield's is lucky to have her students! She gave them all lucky charms that represent why she is so lucky to have them in her class. Then, they were able to reflect on the people they are lucky to have, write about why they are special to them, and create a lucky charm for each one!
