Students in East Meadows National Elementary Honor Society (NEHS) enjoy a presentation from the Monte L. Bean's Life Science Museum at Brigham Young University.
The Kindergarten dressed up like one of their favorite Dr. Seuss characters today at school to finish up celebrating Dr. Seuss' Birthday week. We had many Cat in the Hat's, Thing 1 and Thing 2's, and lot's of little Who's. It was a fun week with many activities to promote reading, rhyming and learning.
Dr. Seuss' book "Hop on Pop" is definetely a favorite. It introduces children to ryhming words such as: hop on pop, mouse on house, and cup and pup. It teaches children that some words make the same sounds and all they have to do is change the first letter and they can read multiple words. Our Kindergarten celebrated today by hopping on and popping balloons. It was great fun!
The Kindergarten sported all sorts of crazy hair today at school.
The students enjoyed an assembly today featuring the #1 New York Times bestselling author Richard Paul Evans. Although the author was not here in person the presentor entertained the entire student body talking about the Michael Vey books and what it takes to be a Hero. He educated them about Tourett's Syndrome. A few students then took to the stage to play a game. There were two teams: Team Electroclan and Team Elgen.
