This month at Meadow Brook, we are focusing on CHOICE! We are learning how to make good choices, what makes a choice good or bad, and how our everyday actions help us grow into the best versions of ourselves.
This week, our second graders learned how our body actions can help us remember our goal of growing into our best SUPERSTAR selves! ⭐ We practiced showing off our best superhero poses to remind us that we have the power to make positive choices. Students also wrote down a good choice they noticed someone in their class make that day!
We love seeing our Mustangs recognize kindness, celebrate one another, and learn that even small choices can make a BIG difference! ✨

Kindergarten field trip fun at Jaker’s Pumpkin Patch!
Full day Kindergarten has made huge strides in computers. They went from not being familiar with a mouse, to now knowing how to move the cursor, hover, left click & left click holds! They are becoming such amazing computer users!!
For seven weeks, Mrs. Brockbank, a Beverly Taylor Sorenson (BTS) Arts Music Integration Coach, has teamed up with Meadow B rook teachers to bring music into math, spelling, reading, and more! From singing spelling words and doing math on the beat to using scarves and instruments to make learning stick, teachers are gaining fun techniques they can keep using long after she leaves.
Mrs. Brockbank has also been playing morning piano and taking song requests! 🎹
Ask your child what they've been singing, playing, or moving to!
💙 Next term, Mrs. Brockbank will head to a new school, and she'll miss Meadow Brook! If you see her pop in or around town, be sure to wave and say, "Hiiiiii, Mrs. Brockbank!" 👋🎶

Congrats Mustangs! We finished our first term together. We are so impressed with how hard your students have worked, we've decided to give them a few days off! 😉
We hope you enjoy your Fall Break! See you next week! 🍁

In 4th Grade, we have been traveling back to the Middle Ages! We’ve had so much fun learning all about knights, lords, and serfs.
We’ve been so lucky to have Mrs. Brockbank come into our classroom and help us learn even more through awesome songs!

Ms. Fullmer’s afternoon class found a whole new rhythm for math today! With some help from our amazing music coach, Mrs. Brockbank, students used musical instruments to practice decimal place values.
They played decimal numbers in expanded form right on the beat, using a different instrument to represent each place value—from tenths to thousandths!
Who knew place value could sound this good? Hands-on learning hits all the right notes!

One of our 8 C’s we are focusing on this month is CHOICE! ✨
In second grade, we are learning that we get to make choices every day and our choices have an impact! We’ve been talking about what it means to make good choices at school, whether that’s choosing to be kind, choosing to be a good friend, choosing to work hard, or choosing to do the right thing even when it’s not always the easiest choice.
We are practicing stopping, thinking, and asking ourselves: “Is this a good choice?”
We are so proud of the thoughtful choices our students are making each day!

Chalk the Block fun!
We had SO much fun on Friday with our own Chalk the Block at school! 🎨🩷 After the original fundraiser had to be canceled because of the weather, our amazing PTA helped us pivot and made sure the fun could still happen! They provided chalk for every class and a prize pouch for every single student in our school. 🥰
We are so grateful for the BEST PTA and all they do to create such fun experiences for our students! The kids and teachers had a blast, and we couldn’t be more thankful! ❤️💛💙

For their Day of Caring, United Way chose to paint some fun new games on our blacktop. Students loved watching them paint and have been enjoying the new games. Thank you, United Way!
The Speech team has renewed “At Home Articulation” for this school year! 🎮🗣️
This program allows speech students to practice their goals at home while playing games of their choice. It can be accessed on a phone, tablet, or computer, and parents can easily send questions to our team at the end of a session.
Consistent home practice is key to mastering and generalizing speech sounds. Because the activities are short, fun, and engaging, they keep kids focused without the frustration.
If your student works on speech sounds but doesn't have an account yet, please contact one of our SLPs so we can get you set up!
One more chance to enjoy fresh, local Harward Farms corn with school lunch! 🌽 It’s on the menu Wednesday, so don’t miss out!
Mrs. Neilson's classes sure love being great Kinder Kids!
Mrs. Wright's class is working hard at math centers! We love using manipulatives, number lines, and pictures to make math fun, hands-on, and easier to understand.
After all that hard work, we take a movement break! One of our class favorites is Disney-inspired yoga! It's a fun way to get our bodies moving, relax, and get ready to learn.
We're working hard, having fun, and learning every day!

Learning Along the Provo River Trail!
Our third graders had such a great time on our nature walk along the Provo River Trail from Bridal Veil Falls to Vivian Park! The rain stopped at just the perfect time, and we were able to enjoy the beautiful scenery and spend some time exploring nature together. As we walked, students looked for and collected examples of living and non-living things that we brought back to school to observe more closely. It was such a fun day of learning, exploring, and enjoying the outdoors together!

/k/ is the name of the game in first grade! 🎉 We practiced the /k/ sound, learned the letters that spell it, and did a class sort to show what we know. These kiddos did GREAT! Love watching their reading skills grow! 📚
