In fifth grade today, Miss Bird's class was givent he challenge to build the tallest snowman.  The student had about 15 minutes and could use only paper an glue.  The students worked had and in the end, some panicked to finish in time.  In the end, we had two snowmen and four piles of paper.  Some of their strategies, use lots of paper, use lots of glue and stablize it by using paper to support the snowman.  This project was fun with a lot of laughter. 

Vanessa Renteria is always walking quietly in the halls, Ariana Rees is a great helper in class. She is always finding ways to serve me and her classmates, Josie Harding is a friend to everyone, especially those who need friends, Kamryn Witney helped Mrs. Nielsen and plugged in all the ipads when they needed it.

Welcome back to school students. We are watching all the great things you are doing for others everyday. We want to recognize all our students this year. #tigerpride, #brooksidepraisenotes

Today we dressed to show our Christmas Spirit.  We saw elves, a gingerbread man and many dressed in pajamas.  We just wanted to wish everyone a safe and happy holiday season!

We have a tradition at Brookside every Christmas where we hold a Christmas sing-a-long.  We sing together several songs, each grade level performs a song and the teachers showed their talent on the boom whackers.  One of our favorite parts of this assembly every year is singing theTwelve Days of Christmas as a whole school. This year, we had a special treat.  Santa Claus and Mrs. Clause came to visit. We sang along with Santa and he told us a story. This is a fun tradition we all look forward to every year. 

Twice a year we hold an It Pays to Read Assembly where students get to play Minute to Win it games for cash and other prizes.  All semester the students are earning tickets by reading at home. They bring back a reading calendar, then put a ticket in their class bag.  Tickets are drawn at the assembly, a wheel is spun and a game is played. At the end of each assembly, grand prizes are awarded. Good job to all the students and keep reading!

Lexi Moore spent recess writing nice notes to everyone in the class, Addi Child helped to clean up a glitter mess without being asked, Alexandria Oman left a nice note to everyone in the class, Mathew Stewart helped clean up a glitter mess without being asked, and Wyatt York picked up trash outside.

Thank you students, for thinking of others. Keep up the good work over the holiday break.
