Our 2nd graders were able to visit CES today to learn about the Marge Wells Kindness award and to tour the building. Thank you to the amazing 5th grade tour guides!!
After wrapping up two weeks of learning about landforms, weathering, and erosion, 2nd Grade DLI classes crumbled into the world of weathering and erosion—with COOKIE SCIENCE!
We used water, wind (aka our own mighty breaths!), and popsicle sticks to break down cookies just like rocks do in nature. 🍪 It was a deliciously messy way to wrap up --- because what’s better than learning and snacking at the same time?
Edible science for the win!🤪

Preschoolers in Mrs. Sturgeon's and Miss Avery's class have been working hard on developing and strengthening their fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination in a variety of ways this year! Play-doh, cutting and gluing crafts, tweezers, and sticker dots are just some of the fun activities they've recently enjoyed to practice and build these important skills.
First grade students in Miss Ruehlmann's class have been learning about how important it is to take care of the Earth. They’ve learned ways we protect the planet by reducing, reusing, and recycling. Students ended Earth Week by creating an Earth craft!
Stefanie from the Dearborn County Recycling Center visited LPS to teach our first grade students all about worm composting! The kids got up close with red wigglers and learned how these tiny creatures turn food scraps into nutrient-rich compost. It's hands-on science and sustainability at its best—thank you, DCRC, for helping us grow green minds! Happy Earth Day! 🌎 🪱💚
Learning is sweet in Miss Bagshaw's 2nd grade class! 🌈📊 Our students dove into the world of data representation today, using their very own jelly beans to create bar graphs, pictographs, and tally charts. What a fun and hands-on way to understand different ways to display information! Great job, everyone!
These students enjoyed having lunch with our School Resource Officer this week. Students are selected to be in the SRO Club for demonstrating positive traits needed to be a police officer. Keep up the great work!
Our March Principal's Pride students have AWESOME character and citizenship. We enjoyed eating lunch with them this week. Keep up the great job!

Congratulations to our March Preschool Students of the Month! These students received a certificate and prize. We are so proud of their hard work!
Our 2nd Grade DLI classrooms have been buzzing with excitement thanks to the Flat Stanley Project! 🤩 Inspired by the book where a bulletin board falls on Stanley Lambchop, flattening him so he can be mailed on adventures (cheaper than a plane ticket!), our students sent their own paper companions to visit friends and relatives in different states and countries. We've had Stanley's' travel to incredible places like London, Mexico, Slovakia, and so many more exciting destinations! They've been learning so much about different places through Stanley's travels. What a wonderful hands-on learning experience!
Today we recognized Math Masters for the month of March . Congratulations to these students for their hard work in Math!
This week, Mrs. Clark's preschool class learned about basic plant parts and needs. We got to wrap up our week by planting our very own flowers and grass! We are excited to watch them grow.
👩🌾🐣 Farmer Showalter and Farmer Levell's first grade classes are hard at work on the farm… right from their classrooms! 🐣👨🌾. They are incubating eggs and learning all about the life cycle of chickens! 🥚➡️🐥➡️🐔. Our students are becoming little scientists—making predictions, recording observations, and eagerly counting down to hatch day. 🗓️🔍. From tiny embryos to fluffy chicks, we’re exploring real-life science in the most egg-citing way! Stay tuned for updates as we peep into this unforgettable learning experience! 🐓📚✨
Look who made it rain today! 🤩 Mrs. Wanstrath's class dove into the science of rain clouds with a hands-on experiment. They loved watching their "clouds" release their "rain"! 💧☁️ What a fun way to learn!
This week in Mrs. Oelker's 2nd Grade DLI Classes, it was all about sequencing! First, next, then, last – and the ultimate test: writing a detailed "how to" on making a peanut butter and jelly sandwich! 🥜🍇 Today, the students watched as Mrs. Oelker followed their exact instructions... and let's just say some sandwiches were more successful than others! 😉 This hands-on activity was a delicious way to learn the importance of detailed writing!
Students in Mrs. Fox‘s 1st grade class have just started learning about measurement this quarter. Today they compared the lengths of various school supplies. They recorded their discoveries by tracing three of their school supplies and writing a sentence using the words “longer than” or “shorter than” to compare the lengths of their objects. ✏️✂️🖍️
Camp Read A Lot was a blast! Mrs. Oelker's 2nd grade DLI students celebrated finishing IREAD last week, wrapping up the third quarter, and Read Across America Week with a day of reading fun. From building tents to reading with flashlights and enjoying a 'bonfire' bingo, these kids showed their love for books! And who could forget the s'mores trail mix and apple juice? A truly memorable day! 🏕️📖
