We are looking forward to seeing you at Back to School Night, for those of you that are new to Lincoln,
this is a time for teachers to talk about the school year ahead, and walk you through the variety of things
we are learning and doing at school. Reminder that it is encouraged that only parents attend this event.
As a third grade, we will plan to meet ALL 3rd Grade parents in the media center, where we will touch on
many things as a grade level. Then, we will dismiss to our classrooms after this.
Student Council
This week students will learn about student council and how it works at Lincoln School. Starting
in 3rd grade, students can be run for a student council position. Each classroom has two positions
available. Students that are elected will be apart of making decisions for special events at Lincoln,
but also are seen as our leaders in our school. Each teacher will discuss this and answer questions
this week for students. Students will need to decided by Friday, Sept.20th if they want to be apart of
Student Council by filling out a Google Form that will be on our class Google Classroom.
If your student signs up, they may create two posters. One to put in our classroom and one in the hallway, if they would like. Students will prepare a short speech (no more than 2 minutes) about why they want to be a part of the student council. They will have until Friday, September 27th to prepare their posters to present to their classroom and give their speech. We will be taking two representatives from each of classroom, one boy and one girl. Classes will vote on Friday, September 27th through a Google Form that will be on our Google classroom.
Snacks/Water Bottles
Just a reminder...please send a healthy snack for your child each day, as well as a water bottle that can be refilled throughout the day. Thank you!
