Second grade book vending winners

Mrs. Sohns’ class wrapped up Lillie’s Purple Purse lesson with making her purse along with the bling!

When we had to cancel the 4th grade fieldtrip to the Walker Arts Center to see the Dyani White Hawk exhibit, Mrs Malphurs decided to bring the Walker to LeSueur! Students rotated through stations to try beading, painting tiny brush strokes, looking at the exhibit catalog, watching a video about her 8'×12'beaded work, and looking at photos and videos of the show. The students were rock stars discussing the work with each other. The experience concluded with a virtual tour from the museum education department with the students on Friday. They impressed the museum staff and made LSHE proud!



Oh look! Miah and JJ, our high school helpers from last semester, surprised Mrs. Sohns’ class as Mystery Readers!!!


Surprise! We have a local author visiting! Julie Gassman shared her fiction and non-fiction books with students K-5 this week.



To kick off I Love to Read Month, magician Michael Callahan performed for students K-5. There’s a Surprise in Every Book!

Students in grades K-2 will be going to Stages Theater to see the play Giraffes Can't Dance.
In art we listened to the book, talked about how our bodies bend when we do our favorite dance move, then created collages of giraffes doing that move. Students will also be reading the book in their classrooms and doing academic activities that connect.
This field trip is funded by a grant from the MN State Arts Board made possible by the citizens of Minnesota through appropriations from the MN State Legislature.
