January 29th, sixth grade students participated in the annual Medieval Festival. Parent volunteers came and taught students about knights, jousting, clothing, feudalism, weaponry, food, crusades, and home life during the middle ages. The sixth graders were able to enjoy a wide variety of activities at each of the stations. They tried everything from creating their own edible peasant homes to shooting marshmallows out of a catapult! The students loved all of the hands-on learning they were able to experience.
On Friday, January 22nd, the kindergarten students at Spring Lake Elementary had a Teddy Bear Picnic.
They were invited to bring their bear, wear their pajamas and prepare for a delightful time. Because they knew that just like in the song, Teddy Bear Picnic, "Every Teddy Bear who's been good is sure of a treat today. There's lots of marvelous things to eat and wonderful games to play."
And sure enough, the students enjoyed playing and working with their bears.

We attended the Utah Symphony, it had beautiful music. The concert musicians taught us that you can hear motion while they play. The symphony was located at Maple Mountain High School. I thought it was really fun because, the musicians played their music as smooth as cat's fur. All Nebo School District fourth-graders were invited to the symphony. We went on December 4, 2012. We enjoyed going because they played so perfect.

During the month of December, our first-grade students at Spring Lake have been learning all

about how kids in France, Mexico, and Italy celebrate Christmas and the fun
traditions that they have, which may be different from those in America. First-grade is also learning about Hanukkah and Kwanzaa and how kids in America
celebrate those holidays. All of the kids are working hard on art projects such as
poinsettias, gingerbread men, pictures of La Befana from Italy, Menorahs and
