Intermediate classes closed 2018 with a new library game - Biography Bowling. Much like Library Football, students raced the clock to find as many biography books as possible that corresponded to our bowling pins. At the end of ten frames (3 minutes each), classroom teachers were put in the hot seat, with one roll to knock down as many of the 20 pins as possible. This "bonus" was then added to each class score. This year's winning class was Mrs. Czarnecki's 5th grade with a total of 60 points.

These past few weeks, our 4th and 5th grade Bobcats have been working to create infographics about our school. Students could choose to work independently or with a partner as they turned written text about Langston Hughes Elementary into engaging and appealing pages for readers. Our infographic project was inspired by one of this year's William Allen White nominees, Animals by the Numbers: A Book of Infographics by Steve Jenkins. Our 3rd grade students will complete our infographic project later this spring. 4th Grade Ashley Desmond McGee 5th Grade Czarnecki King Rainbolt Wallace 3rd grade has been very busy learning about how human behavior has impacted the rainforest and the tundra over time. After learning more about issues impacting both ecosystems, classes completed a comparison matrix to organize specific information. From there, students created a PicCollage about one of the ecosystems to share what's happening there and why, two animals being impacted, and what we people can do to help.
