For Park's reward assembly we had a magician come to our school. The students were able to go if they had no U grades or missing assignments. He had a magic rope that when you tied a knot in it, the knot could just fall off. The man's name that performed our magic show was Al Lampkin. He changed water into Coke! Many students enjoyed going to the reward activity. This man has visited many schools. He has gone to many countries and states too!

BYU’s Center for the Study of Europe is once again sponsoring its annual art competition to encourage European awareness in Utah Schools. This year, the competition is being expanded to include all students in grades K–8. The 2013 theme is “My European Stamp.” Students are invited to create a piece of art using any artistic medium that looks like a stamp on the official 8.5x11 template provided by CSE. Artwork created on any other paper will not be accepted.

Experimental Theatre, Heroes, and Dinosaurs is what Brigham Young University had to offer the 6th Grade students of Park Elementary.  On February 7th, the sixth grade students enjoyed watching Henry V in the Nelke Theatre in the Harris Fine Arts Center. This was an experimental theatre experience.  The actors interacted with the audience and worked hard to make Shakespeare come to life for those in attendance.

The fifth grade students who turn in their completed homework get rewarded with a Fun Friday Activity.  The Fun Friday Activity on February 1st was building snow sculptures.  It was a perfect day, because it had snowed recently but the sun was out and shining.  The students were encouraged to bring their own squirt bottles and the teachers provided the food coloring.  They chose who to work with and what to sculpt.  They all had a lot of fun.  Keep up the great work 5th grade students!
