Sixth grade students have been working hard all year to earn as many Savvy Scientist points as they can.
🥼What is a Savvy Scientist you ask? A Savvy Scientist earns points by coming to class with a positive attitude, giving 110% effort every day in class, working hard on assignments, plus going above and beyond by completing extra challenges to earn more points.
Congratulations to these students who came out on top! 🏆
🥇Electric Bombs - 4001 points
🥈Radium Rangers - 3556 points
🥉Radioactive Radicals - 3516.3 points

In Science the fifth graders have been learning about the state of matter so today they made ooblek. Ooblek is a combination of starch and water. It acts like liquid when touched gently, but temporarily turns to a solid when you apply pressure.
I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream! 🍦
🥽Sixth grade science students celebrated the end of their chemistry unit by making homemade ice cream. Did you know the ice cream salt lowers the freezing point of water by pulling heat away from our ice cream mixture freezing it into ice cream faster than normal ice?
📢A big thank you to everyone that donated supplies for us to make this sweet treat!
What is your favorite 🍦 flavor? Tell us in the comments!

LWC Intermediate Student Council had their last meeting yesterday. It ended with ice cream and awards!
The sixth graders had some guest speakers today to talk about healthy environments. The talked about safety on the roads, energy drinks, hydration, and CPR.
6th graders have been busy the last couple of weeks preparing for debates. At the beginning they were given a topic and were told if they were for or against that topic so they could do the research. The last few days they have been debating their topics.
They also have been playing each other in chess to improve on brain function, memory and cognitive abilities while building on their planning, problem solving and spatial skills.
5th graders had the best time on their field trip to The Outdoor Campus today! They got to do some archery, fishing, and orienteering.
Lots of Science and Math going on in the Intermediate this week. The 5th graders have been hard at work creating their biomes for Science. They got to choose which ecosystem they wanted to create out of shoeboxes. The sixth graders have been busy creating their own golf holes using their math skills. They drew up what they wanted on graph paper, using measurements and then making it come to life with cardboard any another objects they want.
LWC Intermediate finished their March Madness bracket with 6th grade, Mrs. Adney's class, taking the overall win!
LWC Intermediate made posters for the Lennox Oriole girls basketball team and gave it to them at their send off.
🏀🏀🏀Good luck at State 🏀🏀🏀
Mr. Larsen made his debut last night with 5th and 6th grade students. They sang a mix of folk songs, Hebrew, and a song composed by a local Augustana graduate. Great job everyone! 🎶
❄️🐧These penguins are looking for a new home! Sixth grade science students are creating dwellings that minimize thermal energy transfer, so their penguins stay nice and cold. ❄️🐧
It is Read Across America Week. In honor of Dr. Suess's birthday LWC Intermediate has been celebrating with dress up days and other fun activities. Today Mrs. Adney's class read to Mrs. Hinker's, junior kindergartener class.
LWC Intermediate Student Council recently hosted a successful fundraiser, receiving 109 orders. Thank you to everyone who supported and participated in this event!
In honor of the Winter Olympics, LWC Intermediate will be hosting a two week event for students to be able to win metals in Math and Reading. Today we held an opening ceremony for the Oriole Olympics where we had events like bobsledding, curling, hockey, speed skating, and trivia. Torchbearers were Drake, Talen, Hannah, and Eric.
Staff from Showplace Cabinetry came to Mr. Hale's class and discussed how they use math in their job. The class is currently learning about finding surface area and volume of 3D shapes
LWC Intermediate did a Toy Drive this month and those that donated a toy had the chance to pie a teacher in the face. There was one student from each class that got to choose a teacher of their choice. (Not all teachers are pictured)
