Today, the 3rd grade had their Heritage Day celebration. They had been working so hard learning all about their own heritage and traditional tales from those countries and researching one of their origin countries as well. Parents were able to come in and visit the presentations students put together. And we also had a special visitor who tried to find his way home to Ireland too. Way to work hard, Mustangs!!!

The students at Brookwood Elementary learned the song Cockles and Mussels over the past few weeks. This sea shanty is an unofficial anthem of Ireland. In addition to the music, it has a variety of things that the students could learn from. We talked about how verses in a song tell a story - they learned the meaning of the words in the song and they predicted what would happen to Molly Malone. We talked about how Ireland is a seafaring company, so they get some of their food from the sea. The students really enjoyed the song and were especially surprised by what happened to Molly Malone at the end of the song. This class asked to put on a special performance to be shown to our parents on the internet! Thanks, Mustangs, for sharing your love for singing with our families!

Thank you to the Environmental Education Foundation for choosing Genoa City Schools to receive the Charlotte Peterson Grant. This grant is intended for environmental education of
students in elementary and middle school. Mrs. Bobula applied for the grant in December and the award was issued today by Kristin Freytag from the EEF.
Brookwood was chosen to receive the funding to purchase materials for a family focused class and volunteer opportunity removing invasive plants around Genoa City. The group will have an orientation and then for 5 weeks work on the path between town and the middle school. Then, with the cooperation of the Village of Genoa City, there will be future projects removing
invasive species plants and working at Memorial Park.
If you are interested in helping with any of these projects, please contact: Melissa.Bobula@gcj2.k12.wi.us
