On October 17, the multi-grade classes went on a field trip to Camp Maple Dell.  This was in partnership with the Boy Scout’s program called “Learning for Life”.  First of all, the fall colors were amazing!  The camp ranger said he had never seen the colors so brilliant in the past 16 years he’d been there. 

Magician Paul Brewer stopped by Rees Elementary to deliver his gut busting magic and comedy routine to the students.  Children from K-6 that had good behavior by making good choices this year attended the assembly.  Teachers and students alike were laughing and laughing at Brewer's non-stop tricks and jokes.  Some lucky students even got books and other prizes from the visitor.

October 31st was a spooky day at Rees Elementary school in Spanish Fork.  Students and teachers alike dressed up in costumes to celebrate a day of fantasy and fear.  Popular costumes this year included Transformers, Mario brothers, and super heroes like Batman.  Classic costumes such as witches, skeletons, and pirates were also represented. 

Students at Rees Elementary attended an assembly on Friday, October 14 to celebrate what they had learned from the previous two weeks during Artists in Residence.  It was an afternoon of dancing, singing, dramatic performances, storytelling, visual artworks, and an overall appreciation for Native American art and culture.  Well known artists came from miles around to teach the students in these art forms for 50 minutes each day for two weeks.  By the time the assembly came, students were eager to share the skills and knowledge they gained.
