Despite closing classrooms due to the COVID-19 pandemic, families are still finding ways to feel artistically inspired from the comfort of their homes.  Last month, Lincoln Art teacher, Ms. Babik sent out a “challenge” to families who were self-isolating at home to recreate their favorite pieces of artwork using everyday household items.

Lincoln families proved more than willing to accept the challenge and responded to the call with personalized remakes of  famous Art pieces by the likes of Edvard Munch, Rembrandt van Rijn, Leonardo DaVinci and more. The stay-at-home artists pulled from their stashes of household supplies, enlisted the help of their pets, stuffed animals and children’s toys  to remake the perfect portrayal of a famous work of Art of their choice.

And… although school is out for the summer… We challenge YOU
to take a break from the everyday and get inspired!

We will continue this challenge through summer and into the fall, so there is still time to participate!!  Search for Famous Art, re-create the Artwork from supplies found around the house, and submit BOTH photos to Ms. Babik at  judy.babik@neomin.org.

Many teachers of the Lincoln staff came out to participate in the Lincoln’s year end parade.  The teachers wanted to send a message to the students that we miss them.  Twenty five cars were led by a district Fire truck with Fire Captain Chuck Eggleston leading our parade.  Many students and families were on the route that was created by Officer Currington.  Trish Dicesare, our school guidance counselor, was instrumental in planning and comunicating all of the information to the staff essentially making this event possible.   The teachers expressed how special it was to see all of their students waving and cheering as they drove by.  Thank you Lincoln students… you are AWESOME!

COSI on Wheels is a an extension of the Columbus COSI Science center.  They brought a special interactive program to our K-5 students called Exploring Ecology.  The students got to enjoy a high energy, fun assembly, where they learned  the way living things interact in a habitat to survive. They explored forests, rivers, prairies, and wetlands.

The students also were able to experience different interactive stations that explored interesting aspects of Ecology.  For example one taught how animals camouflaged themselves for survival.  At another, students looked through special lenses to experience different animals’ eyesight.   Ecological monitoring was the theme in still another station where students saw the same habitat in all of our different seasons.  It was vey cool for all of our students in the K-5.

 

 

Thursday, February 20th, was the Preschool Family day.  It featured our all-day preschool class.  Our activities were based on the book Ten Black Dots by Donald Crews. Parents and students played games and activities based on the mathematical concepts of subsidizing, greater than/less than and graphing. Families were given activities to further these skills at home.

On 2/12/2020 the the students of Lincoln PK-8 were able to watch Marites Eldred, Teacher of Visual Arts do stop motion photography while they had their lunch.  The demonstration was brought to Lincoln by SMARTS, Your Community Arts School  in conjunction with Any Given Child, which is sponsored by the Kennedy Center.

A combination of Art, Math and Technology

STEM Students submitted  “pixel-like” drawings done on graph paper.  The class voted on their favorite design for the project.  The winning design was re-created as a full-color gridded picture on a 4’x8′ surface. Each student in the class was responsible for painting their portion of the 432 paper circles.  The circles were assembled in a grid that corresponded to the original design.
