In October, Mrs. Ferrin’s 1st graders had Spider Day! They learned all about spiders, wrote heart words in a spider web, wrote steps for how to draw a spider and made spider headbands.

Kindergarten visited the corn maze for a super fun field trip! We loved learning about the Season of Fall, and farming and agriculture.

What a fun day we had! We enjoyed the annual Halloween parade and seeing all the students in their costumes. Thanks to all the parents who came and helped with parties and activities!

The Student Council went to a conference at Brigham Young University on October 10th. They learned about how to be good leaders and how they could help the students and teachers at the school. They also learned about why they are on the Student Council.

The kindergarten curriculum for this month includes learning about community. Our kindergarteners were able to tour a fire truck and an ambulance, thanks to our local heroes. They were given two assignments for homework. First, to create a safe meeting place outside their home in case of emergency. Second, is to learn their address if they ever are needed to call 911. We timed a fireman to see how fast he could get all his gear on and asked many fun questions. Thanks Mapleton Fire/EMS!
