Our 6th grade students had their Egypt Walk last Friday.
The students have been studying about Egypt and the made some kind of display or item that represented some of the things that they learned in this unit.
They had their items on display for parents and the other students to walk through the classrooms and see. The students did such a great job!
They really enjoy this unit.

Second grade went on a field trip to the Provo River Trail and Jaker's Pumpkin Patch in Springville last Thursday. They had a great time learning about nature as they walked two miles along the river trail and looked for items on a scavenger hunt. Many of the students commented on how "Beautiful" it was up the canyon. They then traveled to Jaker's where they played in the corn, went through the haunted house, played on the hay, took a hayride, got to see and pet some fun animals (we think the baby Alpaca was the favorite). Students even got to pick their very own pumpkin.
Our 3rd grade teachers received a grant from the Nebo Foundation for their "Wetlands field trip."
The grant paid for the students field trip to Salem Pond. They learned so much and had a great time.
Thanks to those who helped out!

East Meadows had some special visitos today in Kindergarten.
We had a Forest Ranger come to visit the students and tell them about his job. He brought a special visitor Smokey The Bear. The students loved their visit. They learned how we can take care of our forests. We need to be careful with matches and fires in our wilderness.
They were able to ask the Ranger questions, he gave the students coloring books and pencils.
We appreciate those who serve in our community!
Don't forget picture day is this Friday October 14th.
Picture packets were sent home, if you misplaced it or need another one we have extras in the office.
We want everyone to have their picture taken even if you are not purchasing a packet.
Our 5th grade students are so lucky to have Office DeWitt at our school each week teaching the DARE program.
Today he showed the students things that each officer needs in any situation.
He showed them his protective vest, helmet, guns and all the other things the officer use.
Thanks Officer DeWitt. We appreciate the service you render to our school and our communtiy.
Our 5th grade students in Mrs. Anderson's, Mrs. Andersen's and Mrs. Hogle's class just finished reading the book "Look What I Can Do With A Leaf."
The students gathered leaves, pressed them and prepared them to use in a fall art project. The students were very creative and created different animals using the leaves.
We had some awsome moms come in and help in each class room. We have great teachers, students and parents at East Meadows!
