Second graders at Brookside Elementary concluded their communities unit by creating their own communities based on the book "Roxaboxen," written by Barbara Cooney. They worked in groups of 4 using pebbles, wood chips, stickers, construction paper, and their imaginations to create their communities in a paper box lid.
Students at Brookside have been enjoying this nice November sunshine!
Diamond Fork Canyon Field trip for the fourth grade Brookside students
offered three exciting experiences in one. Exploring water, sights, and plants
kept them busy all day. They doned waiders to look for
wildlife with a fish net in the stream, tested water, hiked, and classified area plants.
The rangers were well prepared to teach them about the beautiful features of the canyon.
With only a few minor mishaps, splashes included, they returned filled with
excitement and a greater appreciation for the world around them.
