After receiving a grant for 30 panels of wood fencing, our 4th and 5th-grade students will create an outdoor reading garden. Lincoln students will enter a magical, inviting, quiet area to read where they will be inspired by book titles written on colored pencils which have been transformed from wood picket fencing. Each colored pencil(picket) will be painted in bright colors. Each student in 4th and 5th grade will paint a picket and write their favorite book title on the side of the pencil. The completed fence panels of colored pencils will be installed outside in a grassy area to create an outdoor reading garden. Most of the materials have been purchased, however, there is still a need for outdoor primer, so that the paint will adhere and last through inclement weather.
