🎉 Learning is FUN in Mrs. Wientjes’ 3rd grade classroom! 📚✨
Students played a syllable game where they read a word, broke it into syllables, and then moved their token on the game board the same number of spaces. This hands-on activity helped them practice reading skills while having a blast!
Way to go, 3rd graders—turning learning into a game! 🔤⭐

✨ Teamwork + Problem Solving = Marshmallow Towers!
Students in Mrs. Griffith’s 3rd grade class took on a STEM challenge: build the tallest tower using only spaghetti noodles, tape, and one marshmallow on top!
Each group worked together, tested out ideas, and used problem-solving strategies to create their structures. It was an exciting mix of creativity, teamwork, and perseverance. 👏

📸 Last Day of School at Lincoln! 🎉
Today was filled with tradition, sunshine, and heartfelt goodbyes. We kicked things off with our annual tug of war—each 1st grade class faced off, and so did our 2nd, 3rd, and 4th grade teams. It was all smiles, laughter, and a little friendly competition!
After the excitement, we gathered outside for a picnic under the sun, soaking in the beautiful weather and celebrating a year of learning and growth.
The day ended with one of our most cherished traditions: the 4th grade farewell parade. Our halls were lined with cheering students and staff, clapping and waving as we said goodbye to our oldest students. There were lots of tears, plenty of smiles, and even more hugs as we sent them off to their next adventure. 💙
To all our Lincoln families—thank you for your unwavering support this year. We are so grateful for our amazing community.
☀️ Have a wonderful summer! We can't wait to see you all again in the fall! #LincolnStrong #LastDayOfSchool #ThankYouFamilies
