From the staff and students here at Lincoln Elementary, we would like to wish our Foster Grandparents a very happy Grandparent's Day! We greatly appreciate the passion for learning that you share with our students each and every day. Thank you for all you do. Pictured we have Grandma Myrna McCabe (preschool), Grandma Carol Nash (kindergarten), Grandma Trudy Schindler (preschool) and Grandma Cindy Cole (second grade). Not pictured are Grandma Don Knaub (preschool) and Grandma Denise Everhart (third grade).
We had our first Bark Buck winners today! Students got a paw pad of paper and they got to ring the bell. As part of our PBIS (Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports), students earn Bark Bucks by being, safe, respectful and/or responsible. Each week, we draw 3 winners from all of the Bark Bucks that have been handed out. Way to go Ethan, Janie and Loren!!
Fourth grade was able to visit the Legacy of the Plains Museum for their Tools and Technology field trip. A huge thank you to Educational Unit 13 and the many volunteers from The Legacy of the Plains Museum for this wonderful opportunity.
4th grade visited Italy to learn and practice Quotations in ELA (English Language Arts) with Mrs. Ranalletti.
Third graders received Bark Bucks for responsibility! They completed and brought back their homework for the first time this year.
Just a reminder. There is no school on Monday, September 6th in observance of Labor Day. We will see you back bright at early Tuesday morning!!
5th grade spent even more time in the outdoor classroom writing about supporting point of view with evidence.
5th grade took advantage of the beautiful weather and had class in the outdoor classroom funded by our awesome Parent Booster Club. They are learning about how matter is constant. When we mix two substances together and the appearance of the matter changes, the same atoms are still there. Science is amazing!
3rd graders solving division problems!
Ms. Tritt's first grade class had a Kandinsky art lesson yesterday and created "Colorful Trees". Wassily Kandinsky was a Russian painter and art theorist. Kandinsky is generally credited as the pioneer of abstract art.
Mrs. Mueller's class found a cozy place to read a good book!
Mrs. Wyatt's kindergarten class is learning about the sun. They made solar ovens to cook food with the sun's heat. Here they are enjoying some tasty s'mores "cooked" in their ovens.
