East Brookfield Elementary School

Fifth grade students were asked to create a diorama of the major setting of the novel they read at home. Inside of this setting, they had to include five items that were important to the protagonist. Each item had to include a well written paragraph that explained the importance. This writing was accompanied by reposenses that also analyzed the theme of their novel. In grade six, students analyzed their self read novel for the archetype of "The Hero's Journey" by Joseph Campell. For each stage, they identified and illustrated how their protagonist met the stage with proof from both their text and "The Hero's Journey."

2022-2023 Kindergarten Search Forms were mailed out earlier this week to all families in the district that registered a child with the town census who will be 5 years old on/by 8/31/2022. Families should return completed interest forms to the District Registrar to receive further information on enrolling their child in Kindergarten for the upcoming school year. The form can also be located here: https://5il.co/14ww6.

It is so important for students to self-reflect and think on what skills they want to improve. It teaches us that everyone has to work at things and that we can achieve any goal we set for ourselves. Our Adjustment Counselor Mrs. Steiner will be working with them on their benchmark goals (smaller attainable steps) to achieve their overall goal. Resilience, persistence, teamwork, willingness to try and inner drive can all be learned through goal setting.

This #MLKDay, we feel this quote embodies how educators help kids grow to be their authentic selves: "The function of education is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically... Intelligence plus character–that is the goal of true education."-Martin Luther King Jr.

On behalf of all of us @ChooseSEBRSD, enjoy your long weekend! ⭐️
