Submitted by doug.lai on

Thanks to all those that made the carnival possible, it could not happen without so many willing volunteers. I think everyone had a great time. Thanks for coming and supporting our school. Hopefully the kids are not still running on all the sugar they ate last night!

Mr. Lai's Class Guessed Dallas, Texas

Submitted by doug.lai on

Today we won our first real #MysterySkype, we asked yes or no questions to another class we met on Skype. We found out that they were in the United States, that they were in a large state. So we guessed Texas. Then we found out the city was between A and G. Then we narrowed down some more until one student guessed they were in Dallas, Texas. It was 95 degrees there already. The students wore uniforms, and their class was all girls. Thanks @hockadayschool

We are excited that Nebo School District has partnered with UVU School of Education to provide this Robotics experience for elementary students. Students today worked with the display module to show a sun rising, and setting on their robot.  What is “Learning Through Robotics?”

Reading is Magic

Submitted by doug.lai on

Magician Mike Hamilton talked to students about the importance of reading. He struggled as a child to read, but fell in love with magic books, which led him to where he is today. 

Many students got to help participate in him magic show. Teachers also took part, and were left speechless, as to how the trick was done. Students also learned how one of the tricks was done. Of course a magician never reveals all, and we were amazed when his Yahtzee dice it was taken to another level.
