Meet Mrs. Davies! She is the behavior specialist at Lincoln Elementary! This is a new position at LES. What is her role? - Mrs. Davies helps ALL students. This is not a Special Education position, but she can help when needed there as well. - Whenever possible, her goal is to intervene before any discipline referrals to Mr. Kimmi are necessary, ensuring that your child receives the guidance they need. - When a student encounters behavioral challenges, she works closely with them to address the issue and develop effective strategies for the future. - If students continue to escalate or if major infractions occur, Mrs. Davies will send students to Mr. Kimmi. - Mrs. Davies tries her best to communicate with parents when students come to her. She will also communicate the intervention technique. It usually involves Think Sheets, social stories, movement/sensory breaks, role playing, etc. - She has also worked on proactive measures, including relationship building, small group social discussions, developing behavioral plans with student input, and classroom observations. - Mrs. Davies' ultimate goal is to create a positive learning environment where EVERY student can thrive.

It was Ellis Island week for third graders at Lincoln! Students learned all about the immigration process in early America, and then it was time for them to be the immigrants! They created their own profile and passport and then went through an Ellis Island simulation. Some were quarantined, some were deported, and some made it through!

Every student at Lincoln goes to a reading intervention group. These can be large or small, and each group has a different focus depending on student needs. Today in Mrs Hays' group, they were working on identifying and reading informational text. She was using the "I do, we do, you do" reading method to make sure everyone was comprehending the message of the text. It's always fun to see first graders go from reading words to whole books at the end of the year!
