Video of Big Friend / Little Friend Cookie Time

Just a short video of SLS students decorating cookies together. You will see Mrs. Magnus' seventh graders and Mrs. Swearingen's preschoolers. Great example of kids enjoying each other and Valentine cookies. (Mr. Baker's little camera also does videos - who would know)

Seventh Graders Invade Preschool - Sharing the Love!

Mrs. Magnus and the seventh graders decided to "show the love" in action this week. Our SLS seventh graders spent time with the preschoolers, making new friends, reading books together, and decorating and eating cookies (see preschool love blog). A good time was had by both the 3 year olds and the 13 year olds.

True Love is Sharing Time - Preschool and 7th Grade

The SLS preschoolers partnered with Mrs. Magnus' seventh graders to show love and kindness to one another. Each "big" kid read a Valentine story or friendship book to one of the "little" kids. Together they also decorated and ate Valentine cookies. What can be more fun than frosting your own cookies and covering them with colorful sprinkles...lots of sprinkles. See the 7th grade blog for more about this shared time.

For 6th Grade Love Is-

Mrs. Schaller's 6th grade spent time thinking about love and caring for one another. For our 6th grade students love is:

1. Helping a friend when she drops her books.
2. Giving a helping hand to a friend.
3. Comforting a friend in need.
4. Sharing great ideas with friends.

Thank you sixth graders for your blog on loving and caring for each other this February.

Love - 2nd Grade Style

When asked to do the "love" blog second grade spent some time and discussed the meaning of love. The students had several great ideas, but the one thing that always came to the surface during the discussion was "where does love come from?" And of course the answer was - GOD IS LOVE. Thus we put the cross inside our heart.

SLS Kindergarten - Love Is...

February is the month of love. I have asked the staff and students to brainstorm ways to share a blog post here about the theme "Love and SLS." Mr. Gerdes and our kindergarten students want to share their ideas about love.

Love is (upper left) Jesus and what He does for us; (upper right) making a card to share; (lower left) hugs with friends and (lower right) being with friends.
