LEOPARDS LEARN ABOUT LINCOLN


Mrs. Lapeyre's Leopards researched Abraham Lincoln and George Washington in honor of their birthdays.  Each student took a fact, wrote it down and drew a picture to go with it.  They then took each picture and made a paper slide video about Abraham Lincoln.  Please enjoy watching their final product.  Later, they also made one about George Washington.  Way to go, Leopards!

READING PRACTICE CAN BE FUN!

Recently, Forest Creek students in grades 3-5 were introduced to iStation 
which is an online reading program provided to us by the State of Texas...thanks!

When starting the program, students complete an assessment.  
Based on the results, students are assigned  practice that is on their reading level.  
With the game feel of the program, students seem to forget they are learning!

The pictures below were taken when Mr. Alvarez's students were "working" on iStation.
