East Meadows second-grade students have been making interesting creations with pumpkins. Pumpkins are being displayed on tables in the hallway for those who want to take a peek. Many thanks to the supportive parents that help all of our little creative geniuses.

To start off their study of the seasons, the East Meadows kindergartners went on a nature walk. While walking around the school, students enjoyed observing signs of fall. They found an assortment of leaves in different colors, small branches and flowers, various seeds, and pine cones.  They each made a bag to collect their items in. 

Johnny Appleseed (Joy Smith) visited East Meadows Elementary on September 24, 2010. He read a story about himself to the students. The students participated in many apple activities that day. They watched a movie about Johnny Appleseed and read stories. Each student brought an apple from home and during math they graphed which color of apple their class liked best. Some of the classes made applesauce, some painted using apples, and they had lots of fun apple lessons and activities.

East Meadows fourth-grade students visited historic Camp Floyd. This former military post is located just 25 miles southwest of Lehi and at one time quartered the largest troop concentration in the United States until soldiers were called to return East in 1861 for Civil War duty. Now only a cemetery and commissary building remain. Nearby, however, is the Stagecoach Inn which was used as an overnight stop on the Pony Express route. Students enjoyed a full day at Camp Floyd.
