On Wednesdays, the students in the fourth grade with no missing assignments get to participate in a fun activity.
Today's activity was a "secret mission". The students built lasers in the hallway with red string and tape. They each had an opportunity to go through the hallway and try out their skill at being a secret agent without getting caught.
Adam Glendon Sidwell, author of Evertaster, visited Santaquin Elementary. He gave a presentation on imagination and the writing process. Mrs. Adams got to pretend she was a viking!
We appreciate him taking the time to visit our school and encouraging our students to use their imaginations.
The children were so excited for recess as the snow covered the ground for the first time this school year. It was fascinating to watch as the children changed from their competitive games played at recess to the uniting of a common goal - building humongous snow balls.
The school was filled with excitement as the students entered dressed to dazzle, scare, make others laugh, or just to enjoy the events of the Halloween day.
The faculty sure did dress it up. Our Fifth Grade teachers came as Rock, Paper, Scissors. The Sixth Grade teachers turned into "The Three Blind Mice". Some of the faculty were transformed into Minions; hopefully, they will be back to normal tomorrow. We had Jenny, a character from a book, a puppy, man, scarecrow, chef, Santa, the list goes on.
Students and faculty wore tie-die shirts, ties, and ribbons in their hair for the theme of the day. Third grade students excited to show their support for Red Ribbon week.
