In honor of Lyman Elementary's Great Kindness Challenge taking place this week, Miss Driscoll's kindergarten class dedicated their Writer's Workshop to writing pieces about kindness. The kindergarteners brainstormed what it means to be kind and worked together to use their brave spelling skills to create sentence stems to support them in writing. The kindergarteners were so proud of their artifacts which will hang in the hallway to remind us all to choose kind because kindness matters!

Mrs. Richard’s 4th grade class from Lyman had Dr. Goldman visit and talk about biomedical engineers, he explained how he uses what the engineers invent . He also showed us how the heart works and explained how engineers have designed many devices to help people over the years. Some devices have even helped a paraplegic person walk! This lesson with Dr. Goldman was to help enhance students understanding of our current science unit. The students will be designing and working on ways to improve their designs just as engineers have done.
