   Students from Canyon Elementary participated in the annual Fourth-Grade Map Walk.  After learning about Utah's mountains, lakes, rivers, and deserts, students created their own map of Utah out of cakes, play dough, wood, flowers, fabric, puzzles, and so much more.  These maps were proudly displayed for teachers, parents, and other students.

     Canyon sixth-grade students got to apply for student council.  Twenty were selected from the application process.  Those students made posters about themselves asking students to vote for them and the posters were displayed in the lunchroom.  In an assembly, they also got to tell an audience of fourth, fifth, and sixth-grade students why they should vote for them.  After the votes were counted, the new student council was announced at school.  The new 2011-2012 student council members from Canyon Elementary are:  Emily Pope, Kennedy Pay
