It was great to see so many students participating in our Health and Safety Week. Most students had their name in for the drawing several times. Thousands fo tickets were handed out. Students made great choices at lunch, were moving at recess, and most important came to school safely. Thanks to all those that helped with this week, parents, PTA, and the Payson Police Department. Let's not forget to do these things all year though. Everyone has to do their part: parents, students, and teachers all play a role in being healthy and staying safe.
As part of our Health and Safety Week students had a special treat Tuesday as Just Jumpin' came to visit. Just Jumpin’ is sponsored by the Intermountain Healthcare LiVe Well program which is established to help promote people to live the healthiest lives possible. It doesn't matter how you move, you just need to be active. It was amazing to see all of the neat tricks and possibilities jump roping. At the end of the assembly, several students and teachers also got involved. So parents if a jump rope is now on your child's Christmas list, you know why.
Spring Lake kicked off their Health and Safety Week with an assembly talking about safety. There has been some concern about students at bus stops, and students riding to school, as well as those being dropped off. Officer Monson came and talked with students about being safe on their way to and from school. Mrs. Jewell from the PTA was there handing out tickets to students. They will be entered into a raffle on the assembly on Friday where a bike will be given away, as well as other prizes. Please make sure to talk with students about being safe nd making healthy choices.
This year for Veteran's Day Spring Lake Kindergartners colored pictures for the Veteran's Home in Payson. Our Kindergartners wanted to show their love and appreciation for these great men and women who have served our beautiful country. The Veteran's were able to choose a picture to take back to their rooms to hang on the wall. Thank you Veteran's!
These cards were made by all the students in Library this past week. The student council delivered over 700 thank you cards to the Veterans' Home today. We have great kids at Spring Lake. Thank you to Mrs. Denise Kolling Ray and her class for the Veterans Program this morning!
In Mrs. Ray's 4th grade class, we have been learning about what a Veteran is. On November 11, our class shared our new knowledge of "who" a Veteran is with the whole school. Several service men and women who represented all military branches were introduced by our students. We sang songs, put on a skit, and also honored those Veteran's in our audience. community, and throughout our country. The children and adults were grateful for those men and women who have served and are serving this great country. God Bless America!
Mrs. Ware's first-grade class broke out their lab coats to make some scientific observations. First, they recorded their observations of the common gummy worm. Next, they were in for a surprise when the wiggly slimy ones were presented for observation. Their observations were discussed and they concluded that one was living and the other non-living; thus leading into their science unit of living and non-living things.
We had a lot of students that took part in this years reflections. The theme was "Let Your Imagination Fly". Students chose from six caregories. Literature, Dance Choreography, Music Composition, Photography, Film Production, and Visual Arts. Many students entered in more than one. It was fun to see all the students' hard work, and their interpretations. There will be an assembly on Friday. Thanks to all who entered, and the PTA for sponsoring, and time taken to judge. Good luck to those going on to the District Level. Please click through photos.
