Mrs. Harrison's students wrote a 5-Ws piece in conjunction with a directed drawing project. Directed drawings are step by step instructions given to students to help them complete a picture. When they complete the steps in order they create a picture.

Student Teachers

BYU sent Westside two of their very best Student Teachers.  We are lucky to have them working in our classrooms. The student teachers chose to be at Westside so they could complete their ESL endorsements.  We wish them the best as they finish their last semester as college students!

Mrs. Boyer's fourth grade class had a great time engineering robots with our Watch D.O.G. volunteer, Mr. Boyer, last week.  Groups worked together to make robots that would draw on their own.
