Tuesday was a special Thankful Day at Mt. Loafer.  The students focused on people and things they were thankful for.  The students wrote thank you notes to someone they were thankful for and a special committee was formed from the student council that helped create special thank you letters for those who help our school run so well.  The students are grateful to businesses, the PTO, parent volunteers, and many others who help our school!  

The students at Mt. Loafer had the Great Gobble-Off to see who was  the best gobbler!  The Terrific Turkeys strutted their stuff as they tried to capture the vote of the judges!  The winners are:  Talmage Sainsbury, Alydia Haskell, Brandon Hill, Kyler Holman, Emma Sorensen, and Annie Jones.  The teachers who had the best gobbles were Miss Doman, and Mrs. Bradley!  Happy Thanksgiving to you all!

The Kindergarten and First Grade Students began their Thanksgiving Holiday early by having a fun feast!  The children enjoyed dressing up as Pilgrims and Native Americans to celebrate the holiday!  

Our Mt. Loafer Grizzlies had a special assembly where the learned about computer and internet safety.  Ms. Decker, a representative from Netsmartz, taught the students special things to remember when they are using the internet.  The children were able to interact with a special friend, Clickie, who taught them rules and good ideas when using their computers.  

Friday, November 16th, was a special day for the students in third grade.  It was Grandparent's Day!  Many grandparents came to a special assembly where the students performed many fun songs and had special poems and parts to share with their grandparents.  Thanks to Mr. Bradley and Mr. Huffaker for all their hard work!

Our students were able to learn a lot about the state of Utah, thanks to the 4th Grade!  Each year the 4th grade students research each county in Utah and present their discoveries at the annual county fair!  They learn about the exciting places to visit in each county, what resources each county has, and fun facts about the counties. Thanks, 4th grade students, for your hard work!

The students at Mt. Loafer participated in a very special day--CLUB DAY!  This day was used to have our students focus on how they can make a difference in our school.  Each class found a way to do some sort of service for our school.  Weeds were pulled, bulbs were planted for the Spring, ornaments were made for Christmas, doors were washed, and students worked with other students to help them with their writing.  It was a great day for our students to serve and help others! Thanks Grizzlies!

The Kindergarten children had a swinging time with '50s day!  The celebrated the fiftieth day of school with rootbeer floats, and dressing up in '50s attire!  It was a great time!  Thanks, Mrs. Peterson, for such a great day!

The sixth grade students had a great time in outer space...or in Mrs. Van Leeuwan's class!  The students took an astronomy walk and looked at stars, constellations, the moon, and many other parts that make up our outer space.  The students had fun using marshmallows and spaghetti noodles to make different constellations, they looked at an ipad to see the patterns in the stars, they learned information on the internet and they made star gazing project to view stars on the ceiling.  

The students at Mt. Loafer had a special assembly to honor our local Veterans.  These brave men came and talked about where they had served and a little about what they did in the Armed Forces.  There were even a couple of fathers, Mr. Foster and Mr. Davenport, who are fathers of students at our school, who shared where they had served and what they had done for our country.  Mrs. Brown had the First and Second Graders sing a special song to the Veterans.  We can't express enough appreciation for all that these courageous people did for our country.
