Dear Parents,
I hope you all have a chance to enjoy the wonderful fall weather we are having! Here are a few reminders for this week:
We will be having the Reflections assembly Wednesday, October 16th, at 10:00 am. You will be notified if your student’s entry has won in its category. Thank you for supporting this program and encouraging the arts.
Ms. Shelley Wright is one of our fabulous fourth grade teachers. Here are a few things you should know about her.
Her favorite ice cream flavor is strawberry cheesecake.
Her favorite zoo animal is butterflies.
On weekends, she usually cleans her house or work.
If Ms. Wright was given $1000, she would most definitely buy books.
Practicing keyboarding with Swedish Fish on our hands/wrists to help remind us of proper technique. Plus a snack when we’re finished!

Thank you to all our Brookside students who submitted their coloring pages for National School Lunch Week. There were a lot of great ones to choice from. The winners are: Emi Cruz in 1st grade, Oakley Johnson in 5th, Caroline Felix in 5th, Millie Crawford in 6th, and Taylor Strong in 1st grades.
We would love for all the Brookside students to join in on the fun next year. Make sure to turn in your coloring pages.
Wow, we sure had a lot of awesome praise worthy deeds done at Brookside this week.
Mrs. Tolley is our art teacher. She comes up with some pretty fantastic art projects. She works with every student in the school, teaching them techniques, vocabulary, forms of art and much more. Thanks for all your hard work!
On the weekend, Mrs. Tolley loves to watch a movie or read a book. She loves to go out and hike, but she also loves spending a weekend watching college football. (Ask Mrs. Tolley who her favorite teams are!)
Mrs. Beckert loves to teach the students of Brookside about how to be friends, students and citizens. This years theme is “We’re all in this Together.” With each assembly, Mrs. Beckert focuses on a skill or concept to help us become better. This first assembly was about all of us being connected and how to be a good friend. She had each of the students make chains to show that we are all connected.
The first Art project of the year was to turn our names or initials in to art!
Mrs. Pickering’s class, along with the other first grade classes, had the opportunity to visit the Springville Museum of Art. While there students toured the Round Up: Icons of the West gallery and then played in the children’s underground gallery. They learned about different styles of art, and had the opportunity to make their own art work.
