"Night at the Museum" Learning Fair

I55Book Fair

Thursday, February 29th

Our students are excited to share their hard work at our third annual "Night at the Museum" Learning Fair. Students in grades 4-7 are bringing to life historical figures, Greek gods, and characters from The Adventures of Robin Hood. Grades K-3 will have displays and projects on display, as well as projects from our PreK students!

Much work goes into these interactive presentations and we look forward to having all of our families come and take this all in. The Learning Fair itself will begin at 6:30 with students in grades 4-7 having scheduled performances in the sanctuary. This, with the I55 Book Fair make this an exciting evening for our MLS families.

MLS STEM CLUB

We are offering a STEM Club activity at MLS!

This will be for students in

grades 3-7.

Tuesdays, February 13, 27th and March 5

from 3:30-4:30.

Michael Kindel will introduce the art of 3-D printing to the students. We have the possibility of offering the club for additional weeks, but would like to see the level of interest before moving forward. We will have a sign up sheet outside of the school office for those interested in participating.

WE LOVE READING!!

Mrs. Severson is available on Mondays after school for students who might be interested in assistance with reading. She will offer opportunities to help enrich reading skills, as well as provide a place for students who might just prefer a quiet place to read! If you are interested in having your child participate, please contact her at severson@lutherschools.org.
