It has been said that people that play together stay together and so it is at Lovejoy Elementary School .  Our faculty enjoys learning new and better ways to teach our students and we do this by having high quality staff development sessions.  Recently Mrs. Tidwell, Mr. Freischlag, and Mrs. Greer conducted a session in the gym that explored the various levels of questioning.   Each faculty member was given a basketball and then instructed to perform a tasks with them that became increasingly harder.  We worked by ourselves and then with a group to reexamine how we want to challenge our students with higher level questions every day.  This session was not only fun, but educational as well.  Thank you to our presenters for such a meaningful session.

Did you know that we have been in school for over 100days?  This school year has flown by so far and now it is time to celebrate the 100th day of school.  Our kindergarteners here at Lovejoy had an exciting day participating in many activities that required them to count to 100.  The students made placemats that had 100 dots on them, strung necklaces with 100 pieces of cereal on them, counted by groups of 10 and even counted out 100 pennies!  What a busy day of learning!  Thank you to all of our wonderful parent volunteers who helped to make this day so fun!

Creating a Lovejoy legacy of reading PDF Print E-mail

On Sunday, January 31, the Lovejoy community came out to Legacy Bookstore in Plano in support of reading in the Lovejoy school district.  Close to 350 people showed up for this successful event.  Students from varying ages were found all around the bookstore reading from selected books.  Children were especially entranced when they saw a teacher, administrator or community member reading a book.  Beanbag chairs in the kids area were found hovering around the readers as others watched and listened to a reader with snack and refreshments.  Prizes were given away and a scavenger hunt kept others busy when not listening to a story.

A long line at the checkout counter could also be viewed as many used this opportunity to instigate interest in reading with their children.   A percentage of everything bought during the Lovejoy event was given to Pennies for Peace.  Lovejoy Legacy Readers is a new initiative for the district with the goal of increasing our kids' love of reading.  Join your friends and neighbors in a community wide book club.  The community read is Three Cups of Tea by Greg Mortenson.  Be looking for details for book club meetings and talks.
