Noun Town and Soup for Friends: Connected Learning for our students

It's always rewarding to see the kind of learning our students are experiencing on any given day at LCES. Pictured right is grade one working on a gigantic map of "Noun Town" where they were energetically placing as many "person, place, or things" on the map. Discussion about which should be capitalized, what was/wasn't a noun, and where to place them were full of energy and student engagement. This is learning that draws students and teachers together. 

Later the same day I saw kindergarten students printing labels for jars of soup they had made earlier that week to give to someone they know that wasn't from their family. They were practicing letters, but more than that they were practicing hospitality and valuing relationships with people. 

These were two examples of the kind of excellent learning experiences our amazing LCES team of teachers design for our students. 

We are very blessed at LCES.
