Kindergarten students in Mrs. Renn’s class use Google Meets to meet with their reading partners. Students love being able to talk about their favorite parts of books that they had previously read to themselves. Way to go, readers! #BeBrookwood #BrookwoodsBest

In reading, Kindergarteners in Ms. Flood's class are learning about sharing their thinking about books. They put a post-it note on a favorite page that made them feel something, that they thought was interesting, that reminded them of something, etc. They then share that page with their reading partner. While doing this activity, they're also working on finger strength, which will help with their writing. Using playdough and working with post-it notes are a few awesome and fun ways to strengthen their fingers! #BeBrookwood #BrookwoodsBest

First graders have been working hard on their addition skills. Students each have a math toolkit that contains math manipulative to help them solve tricky problems. They are also using their other resources while working on math like their math books and iPads. We like to send pictures to our family members to let them know what we are learning. #BeBrookwood #BrookwoodsBest

Students in 7th grade Language Arts took a quiz in a fun and unique way! They answered questions about Characterization via an app called "Quizziz." This fun and interactive website allows the teacher to create assessments for students that helps them to learn literary terms and how to apply them while also challenging them to get the most points and beat their classmates. There are funny memes to encourage them to keep doing their best and even strategy boosters to help them get a better score. Students love this app and the best part is, they are learning at the same time as playing a game! #BrookwoodsBest #BeBrookwood

4th and 5th Graders are learning all about the sun, moon, and stars. Students learned about how our shadows change throughout the day because of the earth's rotation. Students traced their water bottle's shadow in the morning and then observed the change in the shadow placement in the afternoon. They also had fun playing shadow tag, shadow shaking hands, and getting creative with their shadows. #BeBrookwood #BrookwoodsBest

Did you know that today is International Dot Day?! It was established to celebrate creativity, courage, and collaboration, the celebration is easily one of the most fun days of the year. Celebrated by both children and adults, International Dot Day is a day to connect, collaborate, and create. It's also a day to foster self-expression. Way to go to our Brookwood Artist with their dot masterpieces! #BeBrookwood #BrookwoodsBest

Way to work hard, Mustangs!! Today was the first day of word study for our 3rd graders. Students learned about the prefix "re-" and had to come up with four words that matched that pattern. Afterwards students took turns book shopping to find a book they love and even were able to virtually share about the books they are reading with some of their virtual classmates. #BeBrookwood #BrookwoodsBest

Way to go Middle School Mustangs!! Students in 4/5 STEAM were put to the challenge of seeing how strong paper could be. Using triangles they made by folding strips of paper, they constructed a structure that would be strong enough to hold a small object. Other students wanted to see how high they could build their structure. This activity helped us work on our problem-solving skills! Grades 6-8 art classes were asked "Who are you?" and worked on creating a self-portrait that told the viewer who they are behind the mask. The students' drawings were full of wonderful details and it was great seeing our Mustang artists back in creative action! #BeBrookwood #BrookwoodsBest
