Canyon third grade students have been earning play money from their teachers for the month of May. They could earn play dollars by turning in their homework on time, walking in the halls, following directions and working quietly in class, etc. They also lost money and had to give some of their play dollars back to their teachers if they were not following the class rules. As a culminating activity, students got to set up their own businesses and they could buy and sell their goods with the play money they had earned.

A small group of very dedicated students from Canyon Elementary participated in early morning orchestra led by orchestra teacher, Cheryl Wangsgard. As a culminating activity, they performed musical pieces they had learned for the school.

Kindergarten students at Canyon Elementary had their annual Egg Drop April 22, 2011. Students got to design a package that would protect their unboiled egg from breaking when dropped from the roof of the school. Students, teachers and parents had fun watching Principal Dave Harlan drop each egg package from the roof.

On April 8, 2011, Canyon Elementary fifth-graders headed to Rock Canyon Park in Provo, Utah. On the field trip students saw great examples of landforms and the forces that shaped them.
