"My name is LaRaida Pies and I have lived in Utah all of my life. I love spending time hiking, fishing, and camping in the great outdoors. I especially love spending time with my three married children and their families. They have blessed me with six wonderful grandchildren. My husband and I own three Siberian Huskies who help keep us active.

Third graders are creating artwork after the manner of the artist Louise Nevelson. They are in need of small objects that would normally be thrown away (small cans, lids, etc.). They are also creating a community weaving and we need old white or light colored sheets that can be cut and dyed for our weaving. If you are able and willing to donate please drop your donations in the blue bin just inside the art room door. Thanks!
4th Graders’ drawings of waterfowl. It’s optional for 4th Grade students to enter their artwork in the Jr Duck Stamp Contest. See Mrs Shakespear for an entry form (due February 28).
Mrs White, our awesome librarian, dressed as Waldo today to teach students how to find things in a library. She talked about the “Where’s Waldo” books with students and then they were put into teams to find Waldos hidden throughout the library.
Sledding fun at Three Mile Creek!!!
Habitat landscapes by 2nd Grade artists. Students mixed all of their own colors for these landscapes using the primary colors. They also learned how to use a horizon line and how to create depth by drawing things closer to them bigger and things further away smaller.
