Lyseth School Family Newsletter

Kindergartners engage in social-emotional learning. 

Some of our youngest learners have been exploring honesty and their different emotions during the SEL lessons.  They learn through discussion, art, movement, and songs such as this song about honesty!

5th Graders Learn about Bridges

5th grade students are building important research and presentation skills while working together in small groups. Each group researches a bridge that helps solve a transportation problem in a community. Along the way, students practice skills such as paraphrasing, summarizing, and quoting information from sources. After completing their research, groups create a slide presentation to share what they learned about their bridge. Students then present their findings to the class, building both their public speaking and teamwork skills. 🌉📚
