One of the fundamental building blocks of learning is vocabulary. Having a well-rounded vocabulary plays a very important role in students’ learning to read. Communication skills, language development, and comprehension are linked to a strong vocabulary.

Our staff participated in a Professional development where the teachers played Human Scrabble. During this staff meeting, the teachers were mixed into groups of 8-10 people based on the shape that they were given when they entered the cafeteria. Each group was given a set of scrabble letters with a string attached so they could put the letter around their neck. Everyone in the group had to have a letter to make a word, and the group with the highest points won. The word that won was JUXTAPOSITION. The staff was encouraged to do the Human Scrabble game with their classes as a way to have fun with learning vocabulary.

In Mrs. Manios’s class the project was to use the Hieroglyphic alphabet to create a kind phrase. Each student created a phrase on real Papyrus paper from the time of the Aztecs and Egyptians, as that is what they were studying. Then, the students swapped projects and decoded to solve the phrases. All of the projects are not pictured here but Mrs. Manios was proud of all their critical thinking and creativity. Mrs. Manios said that when they were reading them, she heard real life issues of kindness during this pandemic in our society. She also commented that it was one of the best moments of her career! Thank you Lincoln kids!
