Mountain Man Visits Larsen

Submitted by teresa.beebe on Wed, 10/22/2014 - 15:25

Mountain Man Scott Sorensen made a visit to Larsen 4th graders.  He told some tall tales and all about his adventures as a mountain man.  He showed us all the different  animal calls he uses in the wild.  The students also got to see all of the different animal furs and skins.  Some students even got to wear them!  It was an amazing experience to see how a real mountain man lives!  Thanks Mr. Sorensen for teaching us some really neat stuff!

Duct Tape Reading Reward

The students here at Larsen had a fun reading reward activity by duct taping the principal and three teachers to the wall!  The students won a foot of duct tape for reading at least 5 days a week in the month of September.  They also got to vote on which teachers they wanted to see get taped to the wall.  Principal Andersen,  Mrs. Richardson, Mrs. Shepherd, and Mr. Scoubes were the lucky winners of the voting.  The students sure did a great job reading and achieving the goal for the month!  Thanks to the faculty for being good sports too!

Derby Cars Visit Larsen for Red Ribbon Week

Larsen students learned about keeping drug free and not hurting their bodies with harmful things during Red Ribbon Week.  We talked about our bodies being nice and shiny like a new car when we are drug free.  When we put drugs in our bodies it damages them like the derby cars.  It was a great way to show the students how much better they will look, feel, and run if they keep drug free.

During Red Ribbon Week each class made a banner pledging to stay away from drugs.  The banners were hung all down the hall to remind the students to keep away from  drugs and only put healthy things in their bodies. 

Green Man Group Drums Their Way to Larsen

Green Man Group from UVU performed an awesome assembly for the students at Larsen.  They are a percussion band made of students from the university.  Drummer Clint was inspired by a teacher to play drums because of a nervous habit he had.  Clint would always tap his hands on his desk or his feet on the floor.  This teacher saw a talent in him that no one else had and gave him a pair of drumsticks.  Clint brought a few of his green friends with him and they all played drums and danced for us.  The students LOVED it.  Thanks Green Man Group of the fun assembly
