Classroom Feature- Ms Brant's 5/6 class!
This week Ms. Brant’s grade 5/6 class had lots of fun with science projects and a monster writing exchange.
Science Projects
Ms. Brant’s class is learning about the solar system. This week they learned about Mars. Did you know Mars has the biggest volcano in our solar system! It is called Olympus Mon. Students recreated this volcano by making playdough, they then formed their volcano and watched it erupt!
Halloween STEM challenge -
Did you know some spiders make parachutes out of their silk to help them fly or safely drop from their mother’s web.
This week students made parachutes for their baby spiders.
Monster Descriptive Write
Students had fun doing a monster drawing/writing exchange with Ms. Manke’s class.

GIFT SHOP DONATIONS
It's time to start thinking about donations of new or gently used items for the Holiday Gift Shop coming up in December!
Starting mid November, we will have a Gift Shop box near the office for you to donate items.
Students will be able to purchase gifts for their family members and have them wrapped for the holiday season. This is always an exciting day for students and volunteers. Items will be 0.25-$1, and all money collected will be donated to the Squamish Hospital Foundation.
New or gently used items may include household items(ie. mugs, platters, etc), ornaments, books, toys etc. We are also collecting wrapping paper and gift bags so the students are able to wrap the presents.
Thank you for your continued support at Brackendale Elementary. If you would like to volunteer for this always exciting event, please email [email protected]
