To honor Veteran’s Day, Riverview students had the privilege to meet veterans. The veterans introduced themselves and presented a patriotic slide show. Mrs. Nelson led Riverview students in singing a patriotic song. Students brought pictures of veterans and posted them on the school walls. We appreciate the sacrifices veterans have made so we can be free.
The second graders in Mrs. Nielson & Mrs. Callister's class enjoyed participating in their annual Take a Vet to School Day, where they were able to listen to veterans share their experiences in the armed forces. The students enjoyed making special "thank you stars" to show their appreciation for their service to our country.
Prevailing Winds came and performed at Riverview Elementary. They had an amazing performance! They picked songs that everyone enjoyed. They taught us about their woodwind instruments.
The musicians were Jeannine Goeckenitz on the flute; Bonnie Schrueder on the oboe; Anita Miller on the French horn; Luke Phiel on the bassoon; and Scott Harris on the clarinet.
We all want them to come play for us again!
Riverview faculty and staff loved dressing up for Halloween. We would like to wish you a happy Halloween!
The Utah Opera performed for Riverview Students. The opera performers had a game show called “Who Wants To Be An Opera Star.” The game show introduced students to the opera world. Students learned about opera terms including an aria, duet, tutti, props, and costumes. Students were able to listen and identify soprano, mezzo soprano, and tenor voices. They performed songs with great emotion and the students were able to identify the emotion. This was a fun way to learn more about opera. Thank you Utah Opera!
The first grade classes had the opportunity to watch and observe the life cycle of a butterfly. They observed the caterpillars' behavior and the making of a chrysalis. They loved watching the butterflies emerge from their chrysalis. The butterflies were beautiful. Some butterflies even came back to play!
