Who wore it best? Why, it's a tie!

Riley was looking sharp this morning. 

It made Mr. Kelly realize he should spiff up a bit. 

Did it work?

Our new classmates

We had the stork bring some 'babies to our classroom on Thursday.. Mr Kelly delivered the eyed egg to our classroom and we were all able to hold them and name them before they went into the tank. Soooo exciting!     

One Hen

One hen changed the lives of a west African boy named Kojo and his mother. Kojo saved enough money to buy one hen, and then they would have an eggs to eat and sell. Selling eggs gave Kojo more money, so he bought another hen. You can see where this is going. 

Twenty-five hens after one year.  And then more, and more opportunities.  He gets a small loan which, over time, he turns into big success. The book is based on a true story and is very inspirational. 

Storytelling Stations

We are learning ways that people from long ago told stories and passed down information. Maybe your family has some family stories that they tell over and over.

Tennis!

Marcus Anderson is at Brooksbank for the next couple of weeks to teach students tennis. His approach is innovative and fun. Ask your kids to explain the skills and games they're learning. 

Hug your racquet while you're listening to instructions.

Marcus can do awesome tricks, too.
