Hello Lawton Families-
Coming up in the testing world, our 5th graders are preparing to take the first Science PMA (Progress Monitoring Assessment). They will be taking this assessment in October. There will also be a PMA given for Science two more times during the school year. This assessment is a tool used to help teachers know how the students are doing in science and where they may need to review. As always, please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns, alison.roscoe@ocps.net.
Thank you,
Alison Roscoe

School volunteers are extra-special people who are committed to making schools the best they can be. They offer special attention and caring that can inspire students to reach for and realize their dreams.
School volunteers work at the schools of their choice and participate in activities that match their interests, such as assisting teachers in the classroom, designing bulletin boards, working with students, serving as computer tutors, working with art classes, or helping out in the office or media center.

The LCE Behavior Buzz
As we continue to practice our PBIS skills school-wide our focus is “Be Respectful.” The students have continued displaying leadership skills with being respectful in their classrooms and in the hallways!
Our official PBIS classroom biweekly drawing was another success! Congratulations to Mrs. Vasquez’s 4th grade class and Ms. Laumeyer’s 1st grade class! They were rewarded with a classroom ice cream party and recognized with a PBIS classroom banner! Congratulations!!
Our next drawing will be held in two weeks and students are working so hard to earn their Lawton Loot and a chance for an ice cream party! Keep up the hard work!
Parents: If you capture your child using these skills at home, send in your drawings or photos! We would love to showcase them here!

At Lawton Chiles Elementary, we are committed to increasing student achievement in all areas by ensuring student engagement. One way we increase student engagement to maximize student learning time is through the use of Kagan Structures. These structures require every student to participate frequently with peers while engaging in academic content. When students are engaged it aids with attention, motivation, and learning gains.
There are several Kagan structures that teachers infuse in lessons to promote student engagement. One structure is called “Rally Coach.” During this structure, students are paired together. Next, a problem is given and student A solves the problem; student B coaches and praises student A. Afterwards the students switch and student B solves and student A coaches and praises. This process continues throughout the lesson.

Please ask your students about other ways they are engaged in their classroom lessons. Having conversations with your child about engaging in their learning not only supports our school goals but also gives you an opportunity to support your student in their academic journey. |

Have a wonderful week!
