Eclipse viewing!
Our therapy dog, Marnie, visited Ms. Buffington's preschool class and Mrs. Roger's second grade students today!
Ms. Pearson's fifth grade class has been studying metric and customary conversions.
Today, partners went around the school building and measured random items (and people!) in inches, feet, centimeters, or meters. They practiced their skills by converting each measurement afterward. It was a great way for them to see how converting measurements is a skill you use daily!
Good luck to the track team at their meet tomorrow, Tuesday, April 9th at LP vs Peru at 4:30 p.m. Click on the link for a complete track schedule:

Mrs. Quinn's kindergarten students had fun doing a Jellybean Stem Project with their 5th grade buddies today!
Marnie, our therapy dog at Lincoln School, made her first classroom visits today with Mrs. Bell, Mrs. Porter and Ms. Pearson's students. Marnie is learning socialization skills and she had plenty of friendly faces and contact with the students to make for wonderful visits! The students did a great job remaining calm and letting Marnie come to them as she felt comfortable. She also gave out several kisses today!
