October Newsletter
Here is the newsletter for October. Take a moment and review all of the amazing activities going on here at SCMS.
Spring Canyon Middle School celebrated a group of outstanding students who embody the school's core values, known as the PACK values: Positive, Accountable, Courageous, and Kind.
Mrs. Penny Thompson's science class spent time exploring the reasons for the seasons. One student noted that the Earth travels around the Sun in an elliptical orbit. This means that the distance between the Earth and the Sun changes throughout the year. However, this change in distance is not the primary reason for the seasons. When asked what was the real reason for season's, he commented, "the earth's tilt of course." This lesson really came to life as students explored this phenomenon using models for the earth and sun!
Mrs. Nelson's science class was learning about electromagnets and how using cooper wire with electricity running through it can create a simple electromagnetic field. The students used their electromagnets to see how many paperclips they could pick up!
SCMS is proud of Ms. Robbins and her Dance 2 students that put on an amazing show recently at Springville High School. Her students did an amazing job dancing their numbers that they had practiced in class and we are so proud of them and their hard work and dedication!
Here is a link to see their entire dance:
SCMS was well represented this Monday as Ms. Smith and her choir students sang in front of a packed auditorium at Springville High School that included High School and Jr. High choirs. There were so many people that came to see the choirs sing that there was standing room only in the auditorium! Huge shout out to our PACK members that shared their talents and to Ms. Smith for leading such an amazing group of talented singers!
The Battle of the Books is more than just a competition; it's a celebration of knowledge, teamwork,
We are incredibly proud to celebrate our PACK leaders who continually represent Spring Canyon Middle School with distinction. The acronym PACK stands for Positive, Acceptable, Courageous, and Kind, and our leaders have exemplified these values in every possible way.
Students have been busy reading for the upcoming Battle of the Books.
