This morning we welcomed our global high school partners from Ningbo, China. We had fun singing the welcome song to our visitors & illustrating pumpkins together with a directed drawing activity.#brewster13 #rsd13ct

We concluded our our studies about apples by learning about Johnny Appleseed. Ask your kiddo to teach you a fact or two about this good citizen. #rsd13ct #brewster13

Our 1st “star of the week” did an excellent job sharing her all about me poster & taking questions & compliments about it. We make connections when the kids recognize their similarities & learn to appreciate diversity when they recognize their differences. #brewster13 #rsd13ct

We are learning how to draw like scientists in our weather journals. Ask your child to tell you about the observational drawing he/she did of our tree. #brewster13 #rsd13ct

We earned our red beads after pledging to be kind. We brainstormed ways to show kindness in the classroom, in the lunchroom, on the playground, and on the bus. #brewster13 #rsd13ct

The Great Pumpkin visited the kindergartners early this morning and left behind a pumpkin patch at Brewster! The students were so excited! #brewster13 #rsd13ct

We measured the height of our pumpkins with unifix cubes which incorporated the math skills of counting, cardinality, and numeral formation. #brewster13 #rsd13ct

We got together with our 2nd grade buddies in Maura Lundt’s class to make adjective jack-o-lanterns. What an engaging way to learn new vocabulary words and bring them to life! #brewster13 #rsd13ct

We put our letter/sound knowledge to the test when we did some spooky spider writing to get in the Halloween spirit! #brewster13 #rsd13ct

Kindergartners turn & talk with a partner to share similarities & differences of their 2D shape. #rsd13ct #brewster13

We measured around our pumpkin using links and then used our 1:1 counting skills to count them up!#brewster13 #tsd13ct

Happy Halloween from Brewster School!

Brewster’s Veterans Day Salute!

More from our day of honoring and thanking our Veterans!

Thanks to Noelle Durkin & Jenny Lussier for running an Osmo station during math workshop today. The kids loved coming up with different ways to make numbers & filling their fish tanks! #brewster13 #rsd13ct

We had our very first Mystery Reader today. What fun it was for the kids to hear the clues & try to guess who it would be! It’s always a treat to hear a favorite book from home read by a family member. ❤️ #brewster13 #rsd13ct

A special thanks to Mrs. Paniccia for sharing stories with us today! #brewster13 #rsd13ct

It’s Makerspace week here at school. These students are creating some awesome things! #rsd13ct #brewster13
