The Kindergarteners learned some sewing skills in art today with Mrs. Malphurs and Miss Heidi, student teacher. The kinders created animals using wax resist with crayons and watercolor last week. The last step will be stuffing them with paper to turn them into sculptures. The project was inspired by a reading of the Sweet and Sour Animals book with poetry by Langston Hughes.
Happy School Social Work Week to Ms. Susie! You are appreciated for recognizing and meeting the individual needs of children. Thank you for all you do!
Congratulations to Park Elementary February Students of the Month!
Beyond The Brink’s upcoming Escape Room event for youth - Tuesday, March 5th
Preschool friends had so much fun celebrating Dr. Seuss today with flashlight reading and Green Eggs and Ham!
4th graders at Park Elementary had the most amazing experience at the Science Museum of Minnesota. They partnered with the Vikings Foundation to provide STEM activities that correlate with the day-to-day experiences that occur at U S Bank Stadium. The Vikings Foundation provided free admission to the museum as well as the cost of the bus. The kids enjoyed all of the activities.
February kept us busy with Snow Week dress-up days, I Love To Read Month activities, and Daily Wellness activities. #GiantPride
Good luck Giants wrestling team at the state wrestling tournament! #GiantPride
Student artwork made with guest artist Alexandra Beaumont in December hung in the hallways for parent-teacher conferences in February. Students learned about Beaumont's art and created a shape parade banner.
*This activity was made possible in part by a grant from the Prairie Lakes Regional Arts Council with funds appropriated by the Minnesota State Legislature from its general fund.
Students at LSH Elementary were very fortunate to receive a donation so that each student could get a book from the book fair. Thank you to the donor for helping put these smiles on these faces and to help us continue to grow a love for reading. ❤️
