🐉 Keeping an Eye on Middle-earth! Mr. Millwood’s 7th-grade Honors class just leveled up their literary game. To wrap up their study of *The Hobbit*, students went beyond the page to fuse Art and ELA in a truly 🔥 project.
The challenge?
* **Create:** Design a hyper-realistic dragon’s eye inspired by the legendary Smaug.
* **Analyze:** Write a deep-dive analysis on the symbolism of Smaug’s greed versus the heroic evolution of Bilbo Baggins.
It’s safe to say these students have a "thief's" eye for detail! Check out some of their incredible work below. 🖼️✍️ #LiveLearnLandrum

🐾 Carving Out Life Lessons - Mr. Millwood’s classes just reached the summit of their journey with Touching Spirit Bear! 📖✨ To wrap up their study of the novel, students didn’t just write—they created. Each student designed a partial totem pole, selecting an animal that mirrors their own life experiences or personal growth. In a story that deeply explores Native American culture, healing, and accountability, these projects helped bring the book's core themes to life. It’s more than just an art project; it’s a reflection on:
Identity: Finding strength in the traits of the natural world.
Healing: Understanding our past to build a better future.
Connection: Respecting the traditions and cultures that shape our stories.
We are so proud of the introspection and creativity these students brought to the table! Check out some of their symbolic carvings below. 🐻🌲 #LiveLearnLandrum

Help Fuel Our Students for Success! State testing is just around the corner, and we want to make sure our students are focused, energized, and ready to do their best! We are asking for help from our amazing Landrum Middle School families to donate individually wrapped snacks for testing days. Some great options include: granola bars, crackers, fruit snacks, small bags of chips or pretzels, and bottled water. Your generosity goes a long way in helping our students stay motivated and perform at their best during testing. If you would like to contribute, please send donations to the front office or with your student. Thank you for supporting our Cardinals! ❤️🖤 #LiveLearnLandrum
💻🛠️ Real-World Skills in Action! 🛠️💻 Mr. Crowe’s students took on the roles of both Designers and Production Staff this week as they worked through the final stages of their website projects. This morning, production teams met with design teams to address communication challenges, review progress, and approve final changes before moving into full production. Just like in the real world, students experienced how clear communication and strong design choices directly impact success. There were real stakes involved—production delays caused by miscommunication or design issues resulted in “lost revenue,” and missing signatures or approvals slowed down the “billing department.” These hands-on consequences helped students better understand the importance of accountability and teamwork. Final websites will be presented to their “clients” on Monday, and we can’t wait to see the finished products!
Great work, Cardinals, as you build not only technical skills, but also communication and collaboration that will serve you well in the future! ❤️🖤 #LiveLearnLandrum #RespectExcellenceDetermination
