Hey Knights-
What a terrific week two @ LCMA! We had a few student centered systemic changes this week that are working out quite well. I want to thank you all for the understanding and support. I couldn't be more pleased with the care and concern all of you have for your children. You can always trust that the students' safety and growth is why we come to school each and every day. The PTSA held a very productive first meeting on Tuesday. I enjoyed sharing my ideas and vision with all the parents. More importantly, I appreciated the group's ideas and suggestions to make this the best school in Florida. Thank you PTSA for your volunteerism and partnership with us. When we put our kids first, anything is possible! Buzzing in classrooms this week we had Mrs. Gadd's classes debating the Flat Earth Theory vs The Spherical Theory....leading to learning how to think as a scientist and validate theories based on the 6 criteria of science. In Mrs. Wiseman's SS classes, 6th graders learned about the continents and oceans....one activity was "World Twister"....played out on the rug map. Mrs. Hill and I had fun doing this as well with the kids! Check out Facebook! Mrs Butler's science classes designed an experiment using a paper whirligig.....the students collaborated to manipulate variables, trade procedures, and compare results. Awesome. Mr Jones' Creative Writing/Drama classes have wrapped up their writing with the Summer Reading books and participated in learning the "Nine States of Stage". Good stuff. Mrs Patient' Spanish classes created their Quizlet accounts this week as well. Ms Mathews' math classes used the smartboard extensively this week which included classification of real numbers. Nice work! Mrs. McDaniels' classes were working creatively with the Night Gardener in class, involving plot diagram, characterization, they created some super visuals as well. I trust you all have a quality long weekend with your family~ Takk~ Brian J. Andrews Principal Comments are closed.
