Larsen Students were able to show their basketball skills off at a reading reward activity for the month of February.  Two students from each class that had met their reading goal were randomly selected to shoot five baskets and earn $1.00 per shot.  Some of our teachers and Mr. Andersen even showed their talents on the basketball court also. Larsen has some excellent basketball players at and made some really great baskets!  Thank you 3rd grade teachers for all your work in putting this fun activity together. 

Larsen 4th Graders were lucky to have Dan Guthrie from KSL come and teach them about the weather and all that goes into forecasting.  The KSL Junior Weathers Specialist Program visits schools around the state teaching students about all the different kinds of weather that happen throughout Utah.  It was interesting to learn how they can tell what the weather will be and how they deliver it to television, radio and internet.  Thank you Dan Guthrie for helping us learn more about the weather!
