Livingston Park Elementary School

Our kindergartners and first graders with Ms. Paez and Ms. Torres at LP have been celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month through fun, interactive activities. As we conclude our celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month, our classes came together for a special collaborative lesson focused on community—how we come together to help and support one another!

Each class read “Paletero Man” by Lucky Diaz, a joyful story that highlights kindness, responsibility, and the spirit of community. To make the experience even more meaningful, one of our wonderful parents, Mrs. Miranda, made all of us paletas (Mexican ice pops) to enjoy, just like in the story!

Students in Miss Vogel's class are identifying letters in their classmate's names by playing "Pick It and Stick It." They followed the directions to stick their letter on something green, something round, and something soft! #truenorthbrunswick

Students in Miss Vogel's class at LP are building listening & sound production skills! First they listened to loud and soft sounds then made their own loud & soft sounds while feeling their throats for the different vibrations our vocal cords make! #truenorthbrunswick

Flashlight Friday in Mrs. Blair's class. The students loved finding their special spot and reading with a flashlight. #truenorthbrunswick

The library center gets a lot of love during the start of our school year! 📚💛 In this center, children gain the foundation for reading. It also provides a place where children can relax and enjoy the wonderful world of children’s books. In this area the student can read a magazine on their own, look at a book with a friend, use puppets or a felt board to retell a story, or write their own story with the help of a teacher! We love getting cozy in this center with a seasonal book, or a theme focused book. Reading is such a powerful tool that helps children with critical thinking, gives them new words and vocabulary to express themselves, and also teaches children problem solving skills. What’s your favorite story to read with your child? #NBTschools #NBTpreschool #everydaycountsinnbtpk #reading #childrensbook #truenorthbrunswick

Let's celebrate our "Friday Five" Students of the Week at Livingston Park! Veronika, Timmy, Ethan, Farida and Fareeha are awesome in so, so many ways. They are kind, helpful students and do great work in class. They are role models for their peers. Keep up the good work! #truenorthbrunswick #bettertogether

We have been learning about what PAWSOME behavior looks like in our school! This month, we held our kickoff event to teach students about the expectations for "pawsitive" behavior in lunch, in class, at recess, on the bus, and even in the bathroom! Students at LP are recognized when they make positive behavioral choices, and we celebrate their success. Thanks to Mrs. VanLangen and all of our teachers for all of their work to make the event a success! #truenorthbrunswick #bettertogether
