The Lander Leopard News
The January Birthstone By: Alexis Ochi
Were you born in January? Have you ever wondered what your
birthstone is or wanted to know about it? I’ll answer all of your
questions. Well, to answer that first question the garnet is January’s
birthstone.
Did you know that Princess Kate has this birthstone?!! Once people believed that the
garnet was a protector against poisons, injuries, and even nightmares! You can find garnet
in bodies of water where the water is eroding rocks that reveal the gem. Before this gem is
polished it looks like small pebbles. They come in many colors including red, black, and
green, which is the least common. Some are even clear.

The PTG Beat
By Kelsey Blanchard
Your vote is needed for the spring fundraiser! Save the date! The fundraiser starts February 25th, 2014
Do you want the limo back?
Or do you want the money machine again?
The Lander PTG needs us to vote on the main prize for the spring fundraiser. Last year, we had a money
machine and ice cream party. It was fun, but we can decide by voting what we want the PTG to do this year. We
are selling Otis Spunkmeyer cookie dough, and the cookie monster will be coming to Lander again! You only
have to sell 10 tubs of cookie dough to get the main prize, so remember that when you vote!
The Lander PTG is also organizing Kalahari night on January 23, 2014.
Stay tuned next month for my report and pictures from Kalahari, and the result
of the vote. The teachers will take your vote in class and give them to Kelsey Blanchard.
Kelsey will report back to the Lander PTG president.

Lander Geography Bee, and the Winner, Ryan Davidson
By Alvin Cai
The fifth graders of Lander Elementary
school had a great geography bee and
even though there were lots of
challenging competitors the winner, Ryan
Davidson, was able to steal the win. The
school geography bee consists of four
rounds and the winner does a geography
test to see if they made it to the state level
geography bee. The winner of the
country geography bee gets about 50,000
dollars for a scholarship. There were 24
contestants total in Lander’s Geography
Bee. Ryan Davidson felt good that he
won, but he did not expect to win. During
the competition he felt nervous, but felt
better and became less nervous as time
went by. He earned a medal and was
quite surprised he won. Ryan says that
the questions can be hard, but not really
because most were multiple choice. If
you see Ryan give him a thumbs up for
his huge accomplishment

What Happened Before 2014?
Reported By: Megan Linsky
Lander School opened in 1957. The first principal was William Hild from 1955-1987. The
second principal was Mrs. Stephen, she was principal from 1987-2006. The third principal was
Mrs. Bender, she was principal from 2006-2011. Then was our very own, Mr. Legan who began
being the principal in 2011-now. You might be wondering why did Lander School ever open.
Well here is your answer….. Oakville school was overflowing with students, so they built
another school for all the extra students.

Lander Staff 2014 Resolutions
By Haley Lackner
In January, when we returned back to school, I took the
opportunity to interview a few members of the Lander staff.
I asked each staff member what their 2014 “New Year’s
Resolutions” were. They shared very interesting ideas and
funny things also. There were some resolutions that seemed
hard to get used to. Let’s take a look at what these resolutions were:
Mrs.T.Stepanek- “Not to go on Facebook as much and exercise more.”
Miss Newman- “Exercise more and eat better.”
Mr.Legan-“To be a better father, to run a marathon and to grow hair.
Officer Bandelow-“To be the best person I can be, and to do my job at the
best of my ability.”
Mr.Skupniewicz-“To be as good as a member of my family.”
Mrs.Farinacci-“Make healthy eating choices.”
I enjoyed interviewing these wonderful staff members, and wish them
luck in completing their 2014 resolutions.

On December 31st a lot of families

Martin Luther King Jr. Day
By Kathy Du
Martin Luther King Jr. Day is a day to honor Martin Luther King Jr.
for all his good deeds. He gave African-Americans their rights. Before they
had their rights given, African-Americans could not eat in the same place
as the white people, drink from the same fountain as them, go to the same
school as them, and many more. Whites were always the first to do anything. Martin Luther King Jr. did a very, very
good thing for African-Americans. Although on April 4, 1968, Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated. After his
death, MLK Day became a holiday. If it wasn’t for Martin Luther King Jr., the world wouldn’t be what it is today.

The Red Pyramid, by Rick Riordan

The Red Pyramid is an awesome book! It contains Egyptian mythology with the story. Carter Kane at age 14
and Sadie Kane at age 12 are Egyptian magicians and are blood of the pharaohs. This book contains different
Egyptian gods and goddesses including: Set- God of Evil, Chaos, and Darkness, Bast- Goddess of Cats, Isis-
Goddess of Motherhood and Love, Horus- the Falcon God, and many more. This book is the first book in a series
called, “The Kane Chronicles”. I love this book and I think you will too.

Debate over Disney Channel or Nickelodeon
Written by: McCartney Puhalla
Aquira Myles chose...... Disney Channel because “It has a
lot of things that make you laugh and because it reminds me
of Disney World, where I always wanted to go. It also has
my favorite TV stars like….. Cameran Dove, Zendaya, and
Bella Thorne. It also has my favorite TV shows like Shake
It Up and Liv and Maddie. Disney is much better than
Nickelodeon because it inspires me.”
Joey Piscitelli chose…. Nickelodeon because “My favorite
show is the fairy odd parents and Spongebob. I like it
because Disney is for young kids and Nickelodeon is more
my age. Nickelodeon is much better than Disney. I’ve
always wanted to go to Nickelodeon
Studios to meet the person whose the
voice of Sponge Bob and the person
who made Sponge Bob. Sponge Bob
inspires me to make annoying and
funny noises.”

Scarf-tastic! By Riley Anderson
Do you want to learn the newest way I learned how to tie a scarf? It is called the bow tie scarf. Here
is how you can do it:
1. Wrap the scarf around your neck and have one end long and one end short, but not too
short.
2. Take the long end and loop it into a vertical circle.
3. Pinch the middle of the vertical circle.
4. While still pinching, turn it horizontally.
5. Grab the short end of the scarf and wrap it around the center of the bow (bottom to top).
6. Tuck the short piece through the top opening between your neck and the scarf and pull
tight.
There you have it! It sounds hard, but with practice it turns out super cute.
There are a million ways to tie scarves like infinity double loop, skinny scarf necklace, neck wrap,
double scarf loop knot or even the way you make up yourself!
If you want to see the final result of the bow tie, I’ll be wearing it today! Have fun experimenting
with scarves! Rock your own style!
