Mrs. Lawson was invited to take part in a panel discussion at The Spencer Museum of Art 'Looking After: A panel discussion with K-12 educators". The discussion coincides with the exhibition Looking After: Art and Care in Education Across Kansas. The panel discussion was about educators' experiences with the Spencer Museum of Art and how they are incorporating art into their classroom teaching. This event took place on October 25. Mrs. Lawson is part of the Spencer's PEAK program. Partners in Education Across Kansas (PEAK) is a professional development program for K–12 teachers developed by the Spencer Museum of Art. It connects teachers with museum educators and one another, building a shared learning community through art. This is Mrs. Lawson's third year in the PEAK program.
Mrs. Lawson's Adaptive Art class explored sculpture. We made vertical sculptures with found objects. Students manipulated paper, twisted wires, added color and stacked items to create some pretty awesome sculptures. Students were developing craft, stretching and exploring and expressing themselves. Students pictured are from Mrs. Douglas's class.

We had a special visitor at TES! Meteorologist Wes Peery from 41 Action News stopped by to talk with our 3rd graders about the wonders of weather! From clouds and storms to the science behind forecasting, our students got a firsthand look at what makes weather so fascinating.
A HUGE thank you to Wes for taking the time to share his knowledge and bring a little extra sunshine to our day!

Students in kindergarten are learning all about pushes and pulls in science by diving into the wonderful world of tugboats! Students used wood blocks to represent cargo ships and tugboats and moved them along a map representing Staten Island and the New York harbor.
Mrs. Lawson's Adaptive Art Class explored sculpture and collage by making paper pumpkins. Students enjoyed ripping, tearing and wadding up newspaper to stuff their bags. Then they squished and squeezed the bags to turn them into pumpkin shapes. Students explored mixing reds and yellows together to get some nice colors for their pumpkin. Next, students got to "shop" for items to collage onto their pumpkin. They even named their pumpkins and put them in the trophy case to display them. Students were working on several Studio Habits of Mind. Today's Studio Habits were "develop craft", "express" and "stretch and explore". Students pictured are from Mrs. Douglas's class.
Our fifth graders had a special opportunity on Wednesday to share their reading skills with some furry friends! Lani and JoJo from Human Animal Bond of Fort Leavenworth made their first visit to TES for the school year. They were treated to some excellent reading and lots of love from our students!
We’re so happy to welcome them back and look forward to more visits throughout the year!
