Students at our school have been creating cards and artwork for Ukranian Refugee Children.  They have put a lot of thought into creating things that they feel would bring some comfort to kids who are facing hard times right now.  It's been amazing to see the effort they put into these projects!

Miss North Writes:

"As a class we have been learning how to work together.  As a class we were working for a PE party!  On Friday we earned that party!  We got to play with the parachute and have an indoor snowball fight! It was so much fun!"

On Friday Miss North's students were able to have some fifth graders join their class and do buddy readers!

"With Dr. Seuss week, our Fifth grade friends have been practicing reading Dr. Seuss books and they came in and shared their favorites with our class!  It was awesome and we can't wait until next Friday for them to come in again!  Thank you Mrs. Harward's class for sharing your favorite Dr. Seuss books with us!"

Dazzling Door Decor

Submitted by misty.rindlisbacher on
Let Your Sun Shine
Have courage and be kind
Kindness is Power
See out the Sunshine through the storms
It always seems impossible until it's done
It's hard to beat a person that never gives up
Every great dream begins with a dreamer
Kind is cool
This ain't fun, but you watch me I'll get it done.
Believe you can and you're half way there.
Smart is something you become, not something you are.
Believe in the power of yet.
This rainy day is temporary.  The contrast is why we got 'em, 'cause sunshine day is just a cloud away
1 Child 1 Teacher 1 Book 1 Pen can change the world
Make your brain sweat, fail, learn, try again
It's not that I'm so smart, it's just that I stay with problems longer
To live a creative life, we must lost our fear of being wrong
I have not failed I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work

Look what happened around our school! Several doors have sayings on them to help us think positively.  Thank you to Brooke Russell and Sydney Astle for painting them. These make everyone so happy every time they walk by!

We had a blast celebrating Dr. Seuss Week at Santaquin Elementary!  Students and faculty wore crazy socks, stripes, their favorite colors, pajamas, and did all kinds of fun activities that also incorporated learning cool new things and reinforcing things they've been learning as well!  We had a school-wide cookie decorating activity, lots of reading, and the halls were decorated with amazing Seuss characters and scenes.  Mr. Richins read to every single class - you should hear how fast he can go!
