Writing is a part of every classroom in Lincoln, and it really gets expanded in 2nd grade as students learn to write thoughts and stories instead of just sentences. Today in Mrs. Payne's class, they were writing about their evening and about their classmates. Their journals are full of entries! #celebrate379
Writing requires strong hand, wrist, and finger muscles! Here are some of the ways Mrs. Bruggeman's Pre-K students wrote letters last week. #celebrate379




Thank you to our 25-year employees at 379! #celebrate379

Every fall, winter, and spring, students take an AimsWeb+ screening to gauge growth in both reading and math. This is taking place this week across Lincoln, including in Ms. Koppe's class. Teachers use this data to assess both whole-class and individual instruction moving forward. It is a big part of what we do at Lincoln! #celebrate379
Congratulations, Mrs. Jones! #celebrate379

Mystery Science is the elementary science curriculum in 379. It provides the perfect level of science vocabulary, experiments, and more!.

CCCMS 8th graders, Yazlin and Jeanese, participated in a creative writing study lab first quarter. Yesterday, they shared their final products with Mrs. Shannon’s kindergarten students. These two read their stories, then they gave each of Mrs. Shannon’s kindergarteners their own autographed copy!
Jeanese first had the idea for The Tiger with the Magic Tail when she was four. This story has been a passion project for a decade, and her colorful designs made the story come to life.
Yazlin was inspired to write Junkyard Treasure because of her little brother, one of Mrs. Shannon’s current kindergarten students. He loves trucks and projects, and his excitement at hearing the story for the first time today was contagious!
Great work, Jeanese and Yazlin! #celebrate379

This week, Mrs. Peterson's class is reading all about the Baroque Theater and its unique ways of creating sound effects for their plays. As always, vocabulary is a big part of their learning. #celebrate379
This year, Mrs. McGuire's 3rd grade art students voted whether they (1) wanted to have a traditional art show where each student chooses two of their favorite pieces of art or (2) create collaborative art projects related to the theme of their music concert. The concert theme is "Gnome for the Holidays." They voted for the collaboration! Each class created their own gnome winter village. They had so much fun creating and posting on the wall! The 2nd and 3rd grade holiday concert is this Thursday, Dec. 11. #celebrate379



Congratulations, Mrs. Peterson! #celebrate379
