1st graders playing a game about Biomimicry in STEM!
Students in 2nd grade mapping out the solar system.
Brillion Elementary had a visitor come to show off his parachute glider as students were talking about biomimicry in STEM.
You may wonder what biomimicry has to do with a glider? Students found out that a man named Otto loved to watch how birds move and so he created the first glider. Taking something from nature and creating something new to make our lives easier and to solve problems is called biomimicry.
Students then had a chance to make cardboard gliders and see a real "glider" at school which Officer TJ Bastian brought. Thanks to Officer TJ Bastian for making this experience become real as students got a chance to even take a seat in the glider. Students had so many questions about the glider and of course, his job as a police officer😁 #brillionlions
The Homecoming Parade yesterday was very enjoyable. Thank you to all who contributed to the parade. #brillionlions
Mrs. Geiger's class read "Boss of Lunch" by Junie B. Jones and then were able to tour the Elementary/Middle School Kitchen. They even were able to perform some jobs! #brillionlions
Lunch at the high school day today was a hot ham and cheese on a pretzel roll with cheesy potato soup and a variety of veggies, fruits, and salads! Happy first day of fall! #brillionlions

Hello! My name is Lacie Schuh and I teach in 1st grade at Brillion Elementary School. I started to raise funds to give each of my 22 students a book a month - fiction or nonfiction.📙
My goal was to find a Book Buddy for each student in my first grade at Brillion Elementary School. A Book Buddy is someone who would sponsor a child by contributing $20. I would then purchase a $2 book (from Scholastic Book Club) each month, September thru June. 📒
In years past, the students LOVED bringing home a new book each month.
New books are such a fun way to create and build a life-long love of learning. 📙
Well today was the day we got our first book of the month called Little Acorn. They were so excited to see it at their table spots this morning that many started to read it right away. We talked about the book and then had a chance to listen to it as a class. This month's book was donated by an aunt of mine and a grandparent of one of the students. If you’re interested in helping me with this project , you can contribute via the link (https://shop.scholastic.com/viewCampaign?campaignId=e050701f-437c-4bbf-a834-e7cf643058d8)
Thanks in advance for supporting my first grade students and the love of reading! 😍 #brillionlions
