If you ever need an idea for a great Valentine Box, visit Canyon Elementary.  Here is a sample of the amazing boxes that could be seen in every room on the day of our Valentine Celebration.

The rendezvous was a great. In Miss Hamblin’s class we did a long jump, a hunting game, and a strength pulling game. In Mrs. Perkins’ class we had fry bread with honey and homemade root beer that was clear. We also did a ring toss it was really hard. In Mrs. Cook’s class we played a stick game that was fun. We also panned for gold. Before the Bartering Bash we collected beaver pelts.

For the box top competition each class brought in box tops for two weeks.  We would count them and cut them right along the line. The box tops give us money for our school.  We won with over 773 box tops. They gave us cookies and slap bracelets.  We were excited to win!

Our teacher, Miss Hamblin, assigned us to bring ice cream buckets to make (paint) drums out of the buckets. Each fourth grade class brought in 30 or more buckets! We took the buckets to the art room. There were different colors to paint them with, but we had to put dish soap in the paint to get the paint to stay on the plastic.  When they were painted we waited a day for them to dry. We are using the drums in our 4th Grade program in March. Thanks to Mrs. Jex for helping us complete this fun project.
