Sophomores in English II have been reading the book "Lord of the Flies" and completing various activities. They started with finding text evidence to support various claims given to their groups, using sticky notes to contribute to the class conversation. Next, they took pages out of old books and wrote "Blackout Poetry," finding a theme within the words on the page and coloring in everything else to leave the poem. #NLTigerPride
8th Grade students in English/Writing have been talking about "Walking in Someone Else's Shoes," where they each picked a topic to research and created a presentation. They were then grouped with students who had different topics and presented their information to each other, including a short video or simulation to help classmates see what it is like for a person who lives with that challenge. The students did a great job presenting and evaluating their group members. #NLTigerPride

Deb Scott And Mrs. Wenger teamed up to teach a history art lesson about Suminigashi, the ancient art of paper marbling! Suminigashi translates into”spilled ink”. Our version of Suminigashi involved putting a surface of shaving cream and dropping liquid watercolor paints onto the shaving cream. The kids then made swirls into the paint and pressed the paper onto it. The next step is to cut the marbled paper into a large Easter egg. Way to go kids!
On Wednesday, May 8, 2019, New London Community School District is continuing the spring tradition of cleaning up our community. Our students and staff would like to give back to the community that gives us so much support during the year. Students in grades K-12 are seeking opportunities to help community members in need of completing outside tasks, such as yard work, basic maintenance/clean up, window washing/decorating, preparing areas for spring planting, and the like. All homeowners and businesses must supply clean-up materials and city approved bags for yard waste disposal.
If you know of businesses, community areas, or community members in need of assistance during this day, please contact the New London High School office at 319-367-0500 or Kim.Wagner@nlcsd.org.
