LINConnect
September/October 2023
LINC Chains
BES/BIS LINC students explored the meaning of the acronym LINC (Learn, Inspire, Nurture, Create). The students recorded how each of those four words personally relate to themselves. Each student then linked each piece together to complete their LINC chains!
150 Years of Bridgeport
BES/BIS LINC students researched the history of Bridgeport and then created birthday cards that were presented to the mayor before Bridgeport's 150th Birthday Celebration! The cards were on display downtown and are now in the time capsule.
Pumpkin Pickers
BES/BIS LINC students were tasked with the challenge of creating a pumpkin picker! Students were limited to a certain list of supplies. Creating a pumpkin picker was a STEM activity that really stretched the students' thinking! The students thought it was interesting to observe all of the different creations and to reflect on how those creations could be improved!
150 Years of Bridgeport
Bridgeport Middle School LINC Elective students participated in a field trip to the Bridgeport Heritage Museum. The field trip was a part of their unit of study entitled "150 Years of Bridgeport/Looking at the Past with the Eyes of the Future." Thanks to Ms. Darst for providing this learning opportunity for her students! Also, thanks to the museum for organizing the VIP tour!
