Lincoln Jog-a-Thon Rescheduled for
November 4th!!!
Jog-a-Thon Update!
Our
Lincoln Jog-a-Thon was rescheduled to November 4th due to rain. Students will now turn in their donations November
7th-10th and the last turn in day will be November 14th. Students can continue getting pledges until
November 4th. Thanks for your
generous donations! For every $20 that a
student turns in, they will receive a ticket that will make them eligible for
the daily fun drawing in which they can receive the generous prizes that
parents donated. On November 17th
at 1 PM we will have our Jog-a-thon Awards Assembly. On November 18th, students that
brought in $75 or more will get to throw a water balloon at Mr. Stovall.
NED Character Assembly
Recently
we had the NED show at Lincoln. The NED
show is a character education assembly.
NED is a loveable cartoon character whose name is an acronym for Never give up, Encourage others, and Do
your best. This assembly included many
exciting yo-yo tricks throughout the assembly.
The week after the assembly, students were able to purchase yo-yos. Students were allowed to practice yo-yo tricks
on the playground at recess all week.
This event was a lot of fun, and it reminded all of us to be great
citizens. On Fridays at Lincoln we have
Fun Fridays every week. Students are
encouraged to wear their Lincoln school colors so their class can win the
spirit award trophy. Students are also allowed to bring their yo-yos to school on
Fridays to use at recess for the month of November.

Lincoln School will be
having a float with the theme, “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory” in

2nd Grade Spotlight - Mrs. Rogers' Class
Mrs. Rogers’ class has been
enjoying our Science unit. We have been learning about the four layers of the
Earth. We especially enjoyed reading How
To Dig a Hole To The Other Side Of The Earth by Faith McNulty. In this book
we journeyed through the layers of our Earth and learned what each layer is
made of. Each child then created their own “no-spaceship” and showed it
traveling through the Earth’s layers. We love to learn in room 25 and are excited
to move on from the Earth’s layers into Fossils and Life Long Ago.
3rd Grade Spotlight - Mrs. Rosales' Class
Studio 12 at Lincoln School is a classroom full
of Super Stars. We start each morning using our talent to sing about character
traits, recite poetry, and SOAR! One of our beginning units started with
the study of bridges. After reading various texts, both informational and
narrative, the students worked together in groups to create their own
bridge. Each group of students used what
they had learned about structures to build a bridge out of gumdrops and
toothpicks. Their goal was to hold 120 penny cars! The students
were extremely proud that they all met their goal with some students reaching
300 penny cars. We wrapped it up with a narrative writing on the
experience. It's going to be a fantastic year with these Super Stars!
