LUES 4th graders in Mrs. Edwards’ class are using WeWillWrite to practice and strengthen their writing skills! Students are building confidence as they work through writing activities and put their ideas into words.


The Emergency Preparedness Fair is happening this Thursday from 4–7 p.m. at NE Power & NE SPARC and is open to the Oxford-Lafayette County community.
Students in Mrs. Bishop’s and Mrs. Flowers’ classes practiced important everyday life skills through hands-on activities. Students worked on brushing their teeth, washing their hands, and sorting colorful bears while also strengthening fine motor skills.
These meaningful activities give students opportunities to practice skills they can use every day.








Sixth-grade math students in Ms. Migues’ class at LUES put their knowledge of the mean, median, and mode to the test in a cup-stacking competition. After the competition, students collected their class data and calculated the mean, median, and mode. A fun, hands-on way to apply their math skills!

Mrs. Porter's Kindergarten students read The Kissing Hand and talked about the different emotions we experience. Then they used Play-Doh to mold different emotions from the story while strengthening their fine motor skills.







Students in Mrs. Quarles’ class at LUES are learning how authors organize information. They explored compare-and-contrast by reading articles, identifying similarities and differences, and organizing their thinking with Venn diagrams.
Learning how text is structured helps students better understand what they read, and they had a great time doing it!

Mrs. Threlkeld’s class celebrated their first full week with a fun candy salad kindness activity, learning that things are better together! Then, they cooled off with root beer floats to celebrate National Root Beer Float Day.




Getting to Know One Another!
Mr. Kyzar’s 3rd grade classes wrapped up the first week of school with a fun Get-to-Know-You Bag activity! Students decorated their bags on Monday and returned on Friday with the bags full of three items that are meaningful or valuable to them.
This was a great opportunity for students to share a little about themselves, discover what matters to their classmates, and build connections and classroom rapport.
