Character Education Classroom Activities

There are always great character education activities happening in our classrooms everyday.  Today, we had lessons related to conflict resolution, problem solving, team building, and team work.  "There are bumps in the road that we all endure each day of our lives, it is how we respond to these bumps that demonstrates our character."

4th grade wax museum

Ms. Koellner's and Ms. Cohn's 4th grade class held a Wax Museum with some very prominent historical figures that are either from NJ or had a profound impact on our state.  All of the hard work, research, and costume design were evident in the student's work today.  We are all very proud of our students and all of their dedication to this project.  Additionally, we would like to send out a special "Thank You!" to Ms. Taylor for organizing the event for the class and working with all of the students to prepare for today.  Great Job!!! You can tell by the faces on the students what a great event this was and the students certainly learned a lot about their figure from history...

Attention all parents, we have rescheduled our 5th and 6th grade Winter chorus and hand-chimes concert to Tuesday, January 22, 2012 at 7:00 pm in the LIS cafeteria.  Please add this new date to your calendar in preparation for the upcoming event.  Also, if you have any questions about upcoming events, please check out the school calendar at our LIS webpage:  http://www.ltps.org/Intermediate.cfm?subpage=5928 Looking forward to seeing you all there!

Chess Day

All 4th and 5th grade students at LIS this week were given

an opportunity to play chess with their peers.  

Ms. Heller and Ms. Westhead provided students with a brief review

and time to play with a friend as part of the enrichment program. 

 All of the students enjoyed their time and learned a few new moves on the chess board.
