3rd grade was invited to visit Zion's bank and spread some Christmas cheer. Each 3rd grader made an ornament to hang on their tree, then they sang a couple of Christmas songs, and enjoyed some Christmas cookies. Merry Christmas everyone!
Mr. Mendenhall’s class was taught a Native American Unit by Shoshana Begay this past November, in honor of Native American Heritage month. Shoshana is from the Navajo tribe, and is a teacher in Nebo Title VI Indian Education. She loves teaching about her culture, and she wanted to teach other students about true Native American cultural as to avoid any misconceptions. Mr. Mendenhall’s class had the opportunity to learn about Native American contributions, clothing, music, dwellings, beliefs, famous individuals, and arts and crafts!
The students at Rees had the opportunity to hear from Donald Davis, a world famous storyteller/author. Mr. Davis shared some very funny stories with the students. They enjoyed listening to him and were so engaged in the funny things he told them.
Last week at board meeting, Mr. Mendenhall received a Nebo PEAK award (PEAK stands for Positive Energy And Kindness).
