The fifth graders traveled to Camp Floyd today to learn more about the Civil War. They learned the story of Johnston's army then they got to tour a museum and look for a 150 year old potato and tour the Stage Coach Inn. They got to try their hand riding for the Pony Express, making adobe bricks, candle making and shooting muskets. It was windy and cold, but the students loved every minute!
We are practicing finding volume of rectangular prisms in Mrs. Smith's 5th Grade class using real-world objects.

Mrs. Andrews class had a guest teacher come to class. She reviewed with us the basic cloud types. Then we took turns dancing the different clouds. She brought fabric and quilt batting to give us inspiration.

Mrs. Jorgensen’s class experimented to answer this question: because of gravity, do heavier objects fall faster? Later in the week, they talked about measurement. They spent time measuring how tall some animals are in inches feet and yards. Then, the students made meter sticks and measuring in meters and centimeters.

Dominick Mortensen works hard and is nice to other people, Molly Saybolt is helping our new student with his assignment, Lillie Austin is always positivie and kind to those around her. She works really hard especially when she doesn't understand the first time, and Derek Huerta is a good student who is willing to admit his mistakes. He is honest with others and himself and always strives to do and be better.

We have been learning about the three kinds of fossils that are found in Utah. We were able to look at real fossils on loan from the Utah National History Museum. Loving our hands-on learning!

Every term the students at Brookside Elementary are working on being great students. They try to be on their best behavior. Every student that follows the rules, listens and does the best they can is awarded with a term reward. For our third term reward, we attended an assembly that featured the BYU Dunk Team and Cosmo. The BYU Cougars talked about being Cougar strong. They talked about being mentally strong, socially strong and mentally strong. They demonstrate each of these.
Mrs. Ramos' class learned a song about the wind and sun with Mrs. Fitzgerald. They even acted it out. Well done! We love drama and music.
