📅🎉 Happy 100th Day of School! 🎉📅
Mark your calendars: Tuesday, January 28th, is the 100th day of school! We’re so excited to celebrate this milestone with fun activities and creative ways to explore the number 100. Dress-up fun: Students are invited to wear outfits that represent 100 days of school! They can dress as if they’re 100 years old or come up with a creative outfit that includes 100 of something (stickers, pom-poms, buttons—the sky’s the limit!). We can’t wait to see all the amazing ideas and outfits as we celebrate 100 days of learning, growing, and achieving together! 💯

✨ Interested in Learning More About ACEs? ✨
Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) are potentially traumatic events that occur during childhood (ages 0-17) and are surprisingly common. Understanding ACEs can help us better support children and foster resilience in our communities.
📚 Join us for a special training session to explore ACEs, their impact, and how we can make a difference. RSVP here: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/codington-connects-and-resilient-communites-presents-aces-training-tickets-1107557386959?utm_experiment=test_share_listing&aff=ebdsshios


We are spotlighting two of our amazing 4th-grade teachers! Their dedication and passion make a difference in the lives of their students every day.


The forecast in the Lincoln Elementary library was Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs! Mrs. Schulte captivated students with the whimsical tale of Chewandswallow, a town where food falls from the sky instead of being served on plates. Pancakes, hamburgers, and even spaghetti rain down to feed the townspeople—until the weather takes a wild turn! Through her storytelling magic, Mrs. Schulte brought this delightful book to life, sparking laughter and curiosity in the students. What a creative way to inspire a love for reading!


Mr. Bruning has a talent for making learning enjoyable. During gym class, he engaged the students in parachute activities, seamlessly blending fun with physical exercise. These activities not only provided entertainment but also promoted teamwork and cooperation among the students.


📚✨ Bringing Stories to Life! ✨📚
Mrs. Schulte has a magical way of making story time unforgettable! 🐻🦊 Her animated storytelling paired with playful puppet characters keeps our students at Lincoln Elementary fully engaged and excited about reading. Whether it’s laughter, gasps, or eager curiosity, she sparks a love of books in every child.
Thank you, Mrs. Schulte, for turning story time into an adventure every day! 💛 #LincolnLovesReading #StoryTimeMagic #PuppetPower

🌍🌊 Third Graders Take a Field Trip... in the Classroom! 🎨👩🏫
While we couldn’t go out to explore landforms and bodies of water in person, our third graders used their creativity and imaginations to bring the field trip to us! ✨
They sculpted their own models using clay, including four landform features and four different types of water features. Once their creations were complete, they painted them to bring their landforms and bodies of water to life! 🏔️🏞️🏖️
This hands-on activity gave our students a fun and engaging way to learn about geography while flexing their artistic skills. We’re so proud of their hard work and creativity! 💛


🎉🍎 Congratulations to Mrs. Hanson's Class! 🍎🎉
Mrs. Hanson's 3rd-grade class crushed it with the best attendance in November and earned the Attendance Award! Their reward? Delicious donuts to celebrate their sweet success! Way to go, students—keep up the great work! 🍩👏

🌟 Second Grade Fun with Science and Creativity! ☀️
Our second graders in Mrs. Schlimgen's class had an exciting time exploring the properties of materials in their latest science lesson! They dove into hands-on learning by examining texture, flexibility, and absorbency—skills they put to the test in the Mad Hatter Activity!
The scenario? The students were stranded on a tropical island 🌴 and had to design and build a hat to protect themselves from the sun, rain, and wind. 🧢🌞💨 The results were both creative and practical, and the kids had a blast putting their designs to the test!
Way to go, second grade! You're not just learners—you’re designers and problem solvers, too!


🎉🌟 This week, we had an incredible 149 Lincoln Leaders recognized for their outstanding efforts, kindness, and leadership! 🌟🎉
Way to go, Lincoln Leaders! We are so proud of each and every one of you. Keep up the amazing work! 💙💛 #LincolnLeaders #ProudMoment #MakingADifference
