Ms. Rojas' k,1,2 classroom concluded its study on birds with an Earth Day celebration! The students used their fine motor skills and give bird beaks (pliers, tweezers and chopsticks) a try as they sorted seeds, made bird feeders and went on a nature scavenger hunt to celebrate Earth Day!
Food and Nutrition class is finishing its fruit unit. One project was learning about how to use a knife to cut fruit and vegetables. Students also cut lemons for water and had a mini food photography lesson. They also made Furutsu Sandos — creative fruit sandwiches — from Japan. There is a special technique with creating the sandwiches — cutting on the diagonal to create a presentation of fruit and cream.
The students also made fruit pizzas. All projects were created and made by the students.

Congratulations to DARE Officer Deputy Beebe and the fifth grade students at LMCS Elementary School for completing the 10-week Drug Abuse Resistance Education Program. DARE is a police officer-led series of classroom lessons that teaches fifth graders life lessons and valuable tools to resist peer pressure, live productive drug and violence-free lives, and teach students about ways to handle stress and friendships.
High school students ventured down to the kindergarten classes to bring amazing lessons involving a story, planting vegetables, using the blender bike to make salsa and culminating with the eating of what they made together in recognition of Ag Literacy week. It was fabulous afternoon for the elementary kids and fun for the high school students as well. The younger students learn a lot and truly enjoyed interacting with 'the big kids'!
