We are proud to be an American! Our local Veterans visited our school for Veterans day and Miss Nuttall's class took the opportunity to color a picture and write them a kind note. Not only did the Veterans smile and enjoy the notes, but the third graders beamed with pride as they participated in this kind act. It's amazing what a little kindness can do for all involved.

Students in Miss Washburn's class celebrated America's Independence this week at the end of their Revolutionary War unit. Students wrote about America and what they have learned in Social studies. They also played a Revolution Quiz game. In addition, they participated in some patriotic activities and had a treat!

Students in sixth grade are completing an analysis of the planets. They are comparing and contrasting the number of moons, orbital periods, temperatures, and diameters.    

Fifth-grade students held a States Fair on Monday, November 11, 2019. Each student chose a state to learn about and then created displays so others could learn about their state. Students and families came to the gym to see all of the creations. Great job!

Mrs. Harreld's third-grade students have been disguising turkeys for the upcoming holiday. They then get to write about the disguise that saved that turkey. There are some clever cover-ups that have been used. 

First grade has been learning about the democratic process. We wrote speeches and made posters to decide whether turkey should be our main dish for Thanksgiving dinner or not. Then we held a class election and voted. Our results were tabulated and those exercising their right to vote chose to eat turkey!! It was a close race decided by just 2 votes!

When we all do a little, a lot can get accomplished.

Canyon Elementary is proud of our PTA.

Are you a book lover? If so, 3rd Grade has you covered. We have been working hard on our Halloween Character Book Reports. We were asked to read a chapter book and turn a pumpkin into our main character. We found 28 books that we either LOVED or liked and shared them with our classmates. So, if you are looking for a book suggestion just ask the 3rd graders at Canyon Elementary.  

Sixth-grade students have been studying the galaxy. One goal in this unit is to help students analyze and understand how far our planets really are from the earth and from the sun. They do this through detail research, rocket sketches, rocket building and launching of the rockets.

Mrs. Nilson's class learned about voting and they want to remind YOU to get out and vote!
