Celebrating our 6th Grade Leaders
This week we celebrated our 6th graders. Many of them have been at Glenbrook since they were in Kindergarten, others joined just this year, and several somewhere in between. No matter when they came to Glenbrook, they have become part of our Glenbrook family, the history of our school. They have made an impact on all of us. We are so proud of their accomplishments and we congratulate them for a great year. Each of them have grown into outstanding young people. We will miss them!

Mrs. Chandler-Roth's Class
They students enjoyed a little cooperative group creative STEM activity called "You Want Me To Do What?!" The students worked over 2 days to build a structure of their choice. They then wrote detailed instructions for another group to replicate their structure and answer some mathematics questions. They had a great discussion about perspective when they finished!
Mrs. Jagielski's Class
Rube Goldberg Machines -
Rube Goldberg machines are humorous, unnecessarily complicated inventions that use many steps to accomplish simple tasks.
Mrs. Bury's Class
After finishing up the book Escape from Mr. Lemoncello's Library by Chris Grabenstein, Mrs. Bury's class did their own "Breakout" in Glenbrook's library by following some very challenging clues.
Kid Jungle - Power Style Show - The 6th graders were treated to an afternoon of dance. Thank you to Glenbrook PTA for sponsoring the event. The students learned all about the history of dance and the power of unity that dance brings to us. They watched some amazing dancers and even had a chance to learn a few steps themselves.
