Students in 6th-grade art classes were learning about the artist Grant Wood. He is famous for his painting American Gothic, but also for his paintings of rural landscapes. Students used his style of landscape art and our own midwestern scenery as inspiration for these drawings and watercolor paintings. What beautiful work, Mustang Artists! #BeBrookwood #BrookwoodsBest

Miss Ayala is a student teacher from UW-Whitewater who has been working with Mrs. Renn and her kindergarten students since the beginning of the school year. Miss Ayala has been working hard to teach both virtual and in-class students. She has just begun her lead time in the classroom, but has been leading lessons for weeks. Brookwood is happy to be able to work with UW-Whitewater to help our future teachers grow in their profession! Here are a few pictures of Miss Ayala engaging with students with her fall-themed reading, writing, and math activities. #BeBrookwood #BrookwoodsBest

Sometimes practicing spelling words can be a draggggg....but not in Miss Ferguson's 2nd-grade classroom! Her second graders love to practice their spelling words with....shaving cream! This not only helps students practice their spelling words but it also allows their brains to grow in a multi-sensory activity as well! Have you tried spelling with shaving cream?! #BeBrookwood #BrookwoodsBest

In Miss Dwy's 2nd grade class, they have been having a blast on Friday's because it is.....Flashlight Friday's! Each Friday they turn off the lights during reading stamina time and students read using finger flashlights. This is not only a really fun and engaging way to work on their reading stamina, but it also helps students develop their tracking skills in reading! Way to work hard, Mustangs! #BeBrookwood #BrookwoodsBest

We love being able to work with our Bloomfield Genoa City Fire Department during fire safety week, the Bloomfield-Genoa City Fire and Rescue Department participated in a virtual field trip for our elementary students. The students were shown all of the different trucks, a firefighter putting on all of their gear, a ride-along on the newest fire engine, and parking the big engine. Families and community members, thank you for continuing to work with our students on fire safety! Your commitment is extremely appreciated! And a special shout out to the Bloomfield Genoa City Fire & Rescue team! Check out the virtual field trip here: https://tinyurl.com/y29n649j #BeBrookwood #BrookwoodsBest

To celebrate national Farm to School Month, students in grades 4/5 "crunched" into locally grown apples from Hafs Road Orchard! Schools around Wisconsin "crunched" at noon today! The socially distanced outdoor crunch was a huge success! The Great Lakes Apple Crunch hopes to get over 2 million crunches today and throughout the month of October! Apples were purchased with a grant from Fuel Up to Play 60. Fuel Up to Play 60 is a school nutrition and exercise program launched by National Dairy Councils and the NFL in collaboration with the USDA to improve health and wellness for American's youth. This grant will help us continue to promote healthy eating and exercise all year long! #BeBrookwood #BrookwoodsBest
