At Lakewood Elementary, students who demonstrate a need for advanced academics are served in a variety of ways. All students in Kindergarten through 2nd grade participate in the Investigations in STEM program, practicing critical and creative thinking skills tied to the core curriculum. In addition, K-2 students who are performing above grade level in reading or math receive small group instruction with Ms. Miles. Through data collection and teacher observation, third through fifth graders who demonstrate a need for extension are served by their classroom teacher through differentiation and participate in small, pull-out reading and math groups with Mrs. Walker. We also recognize potential in Kindergarten through fifth grade students and provide enrichment opportunities throughout the year.

The Unit You!
Our 5th grade students used their own height and exponents to find objects that were 0.01, 0.1, 1, 10, and 100 times their height! They explored measurement using both traditional and non-traditional measuring tools. Many students discovered that 10 times their height was much bigger than they predicted! This hands-on activity helped students make meaningful connections between exponents, measurement, and the world around them.
