1-3 graders have been practicing feeling the beat in the music from video games. They had to hop on the best and get the whole team through the maze. Then, some raced the "monster" (me) to get the treasure and get out before I caught them! 4/5 are finishing On Top of Spaghetti on their ukes and hope to be able to play for their teachers. 😁

Miss Owen’s class had the opportunity to have a special guest from the BYU Native American Curriculum Initiative come and teach us this week! We learned about the importance of water, particularly on the Confederated Tribes of the Goshute Reservation, and discussed ways that we can conserve it. We also used a program to create songs with melodies that follow the shape of a stream! 

Top TEN Tips for Raising Children with Special Needs

Our fourth graders are learning about different types of energy. This unit is all about light waves. During this lesson they discovered how in a dark room without a light source, it’s difficult to distinguish colors from one another. When a flashlight was turned on but pointed away from the papers, they could start to see the light rays reflecting from the walls to the papers and into their eyes, but the colors were only clearly visible when the light source was pointed directly at the paper. They are also learning that darker colors are absorbing more light than brighter colors.

We recently had Habitat Day in 2nd Grade! Students were able to travel around the world (the different 2nd grade classrooms) to visit 5 major world habitats- tundra, ocean, desert, grasslands and the rainforest. In our class, students enjoyed making fish to swim down our waterfall and river while stuffed sloths, parots, monkeys and snakes hung from vines. Can you guess which habitat our room represented?
