Middle School Students of the Month for February
Students in Chemistry were predicting the products of chemical reactions. Different tests (such as the flaming splint test) were done to identify chemicals produced and check their predictions.
Students in physical science were exploring motion by using ultrasonic motion detectors and Logger Pro lab tools to graph the motion of manipulated objects. Students worked to understand how movement in one dimension can be graphed.
Students in physical science were using pH strips to determine the pH of common household items, calculating pOH, and predicting properties of those items based on their acidity or alkalinity.
Celebrating LS-H Seniors! Class of 2022!
Mr. May’s PE classes are enjoying skating at the Community Center!
Students in physical science were observing the chemical reactions of chemical equations that they were balancing!
AVID 9 students completed an Expository Writing Unit where they created board games based on Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs. They then took a class period to play another classmate's game.
Accel. Algebra test their Barbie Bungee cord predictions today.
Accel. Algebra students use data collected to write an equation that can be used to predict how many rubber bands to add to Barbie's bungee cord to make it thrilling yet safe.

8th Grade Accel. Algebra students are modeling Barbie bungee jumping. The data they collect will be used to write a mathematical equation to predict how many rubber bands are needed to fall a specified distance.
Students in physical science are investigating the properties of ionic compounds so they can compare those properties with the observed properties of covalent compounds.
Students in Chemistry are exploring alloys by making a "Silver" and "Gold" penny.
Students in Chemistry are using their creativity through stop-motion animation to show what they know about the formation of ions and ionic compounds!
The Le Sueur-Henderson Jr. High knowledge bowlers fueled up with donuts and cinnamon rolls today before heading off to competition in Mankato. They ended up placing 13th out of the 27 teams competing from around the region.
Students in 9th-Grade physical science were making posters to show what they have learned about how the understanding of the atom has changed over time!
Winter Activities are upon us!! Girls Hockey starts today.....Boys Hockey & Girls Basketball begins on Monday 11/15....Wrestling/Boys Basketball starts on Monday 11/22. If you didn't play a fall sport, stop by the office to get forms!
