UPDATE: Nutcracker Performances


The time has arrived! Our third graders will be performing the Nutcracker for your enjoyment this week. Students will perform for our Lincoln School community Wednesday morning at 11:00. Costumes are needed that day at school. Please check with your child to make sure they have their costume on or packed for school that day.


Our evening performance is for families and all are welcome! Lincoln's performance begins at 5:00 at the St. Joseph High School auditorium. Doors open for the evening performance at 4:30. Enter through the auditorium entrance and follow the signs to get your student to the right location. Students may ride the bus from school directly to the high school to help with transportation. Please complete this form (if you haven't already) so we know what the end of the school day plans will look like for your student.

Unit Tests THIS WEEK in Math and Science

We have finished our unit on addition and subtraction within 1000 this week and will be testing this week. In this unit, students use place value understanding to round whole numbers and add and subtract within 1000. They also represent and solve two-step word problems using addition, subtraction, and multiplication and assess the reasonableness of answers. Here is a family support guide for you to take a peek at to help your child at home. If you read and scroll to the end, you'll see a short "Try at home" section.


We have also wrapped up our science unit on "Fates of Traits." Our science test will be on Tuesday. A study guide should have come home with your child last week. All of the video lessons can be found in our Google Classrooms.


We realize that this week is going to be very busy with all the holiday festivities and the unit tests. These tests are over content that we have been working on over the past weeks and should not require a great deal of studying at home. However, we do share this information so you can check in with your child and do some preparation at home. Additionally, you can help at home by keeping your schedule and routines as consistent as possible as we wrap up this calendar year and head into winter break.
