There are incredible lessons, projects, and opportunities for students throughout Lansing High School. To share these initiatives, Dr. Penrose sends an all-staff email with pictures of an assignment, project, or activity and titles it "Name It, Claim It." The teacher responsible then replies to all staff to briefly explain what the unit is, what they are doing, and any reactions. The email allows teachers to visit other teachers' classrooms virtually and start conversations about student learning, cross-curricular activities, and differentiation.
The October 14, 2024 "Name It, Claim It" features Science Teacher Rita Oatney:
"I just finished up cellular respiration, and we are starting a unit on cellular reproduction/division...yes, it's that time of the year when they get to discover where they came from🤰🐣, we keep it at a celluar level.
As part of my Halloween decorations, I thought it would be fun to see who would respond to a skeleton asking questions about things they learned in health, Human Body System and A & P. Happy Fall ya'LL.
