For your weekend enjoyment! Our Family Engagement Team is excited to share with our Brookwood Families and our community members a digital read aloud series where our team and staff members will be reading books aloud to you and your families while sharing effective reading strategies and activities for you to engage in at home with not only our books we are sharing with you but also your own personal books, books from our local library, our school libraries, or even books bought from the store. We hope you enjoy this activity and find ways to implement these strategies and games at home with your loved ones.
We hope you enjoy this read aloud from Mr. Braden where asks you if you've ever felt like our character in our book and what were your actions in response to it? Make sure to get out to enjoy the nice weather as well! Check out his read aloud here: https://youtu.be/kVJKDp5oW7E

See you tomorrow, Mustangs! Reminder that this is what school lunch is for tomorrow: Chicken Drumstick / Mashed Potatoes / Dinner Roll / Salad / Peaches

A book fair reminder: did you know that not only students like to get books from the book fair, but that teachers do, too? Our teachers have created wish lists, just like your children did this week, for books that they want in their classroom library. If your family would like to help your child’s teacher (or any of the teachers!) in getting some of these books for their classroom, you can find their wish lists here https://docs.google.com/document/d/1jmChUU0JHAJRGdVjRXRs3mtylaMDS_Z5CYoEjB9h7Ik/edit?usp=sharing or on the library website. Email Ms. Bolwerk if you have purchased a book for a teacher, and you will be entered into a drawing to receive a free book from the fair!


Don't forget about our Virtual Q&A Session tonight from 6:30-7:30 pm on the upcoming Operational Referendum. Here is the link to join in on the meeting: meet.google.com/hdg-uhkv-kze If you have questions, please contact Kellie Bohn at Kellie.Bohn@gcj2.k12.wi.us
