Springville Junior High

This year in the library we are exploring books based on the emotions they evoke when we read them. Students can complete each month's challenge for a chance to spin the wheel for prizes in the library. Those who complete all 8 challenges will receive a special prize at the end of the school year. Read along with us at home!

Students learned the importance of having all kinds of people when working together in a group. Student groups built paper towers in 5 minutes with only people that shared their personality type. We learned that a group is stronger and does better when everyone works together because we have many different strengths to draw on.

Students also solved a lock box mystery to learn the questions historians use when they analyze.
