Wendy Dimond's kindergarten class had some unique recipes for their turkeys.

Oakley's ingredients were salad, tomatoes, bacon, power pellets, shoes, and chicken. His directions were "donkey it", heat up knives and put on turkey to fry it. Cooking time 30 seconds at donkey level.

Brook's ingredients were milk, cookies, dragon eggs, popsicle sticks, pretzels, and corn. Directions let the popsicles melt, the pretzels go inside with the cookies and corn. Cooking time; pinecone. Oven temperature boiling.

Brockbank first-graders recently finished reading the book, "Turkey Trouble" written by Wendi J. Silvano. In the story a turkey is in trouble, bad trouble, it is almost Thanksgiving and he is the main course. Farmer Jake is looking for him. Turkey has an idea what if he doesn't look like a turkey? What if he looks like something different instead? First-graders then got to use their imaginations and pick a disguise for Turkey so Farmer Jake won't recognize him.

On Nov 17, 2021 third grade students shared three very different reader’s theatres with each other. Two of the scripts taught sequencing. All of the scripts strengthened reading and expression.

At Brockbank this year students are earning "Caught Ya" slips for doing good deeds, picking up trash, listening and following directions in class, and many more things. Every Monday students can redeem their slips for a variety of things depending on the number of caught ya slips they have earned. They can redeem their slips or save them. Taft Kappas chose to save his slips and earned 70 of them and was able to sit in the principal's chair for the day, Principal Holt was left to sit in Taft's chair.   Way to go Taft! 

Reflections, this year the theme was “I can change the world by…”

Brockbank's winners were James Jarvis, Evalet Youd, Ace Sampson, Braxton Mabey, Stela Youd, Tucker Townsend, Jace Hermansen, Luke Nichols, Brooklyn Larsen, Kimmie Clark, Halle Hales, Gloria Jarvis, and Rosie Sampson.
