Lindsey Downey, our wonderful librarian, was named Classified Employee of the Year this morning in our faculty meeting.  Let's get to know her a little better . . . Mrs. Downey is from Spanish Fork and is married to her high school sweetheart.  She has two children and is a huge Utah UTE fan.  Lindsey loves to cook, go camping and sew.  She is very creative and organized, and grows a mean garden!  She makes learning fun and the students LOVE HER, as do all of us here at Spanish Oaks.  Congratulations Mrs. Downey!

Chocolate Day is every child's favorite day because who doesn't like learning when there is chocolate involved?  After lunch, students went on an Easter Egg Hung around our classroom.  They had to find the egg that had their student number on it.  After our Easter Egg Hunt, we watched a couple clips from the movie, "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory."  Then students had to finish the sentence, "If I was Willy Wonka, I would make a candy bar called________."  Students had to describe what was inside their candy bar and draw a picture of it.  Then I gave each student a chocolate bunny

Some Fun Learning in Miss Young's Class

Miss Young has some fun learning going on in and out of her classroom. The outside pictures are of our geometry monsters we made using chalk to draw animals out of the shapes we have learned about.  

The inside pictures are of our synonym egg hunt. The students were each given an egg with a word, then they had to search the room for the egg with the matching word so that they could use their words in two sentences and draw a picture to go with it.
