Reflection Participants
We love all of The Arts at Meadow Brook Elementary. We had many who participated in Reflections, and shared their talents with all of us. Keep up the good work, Mustangs!

This week 2nd graders learned about Utah culture and had a chance to share about their own cultures! Our second grade had many different cultures to share and teach about and we loved seeing and hearing about each child’s culture!
Mrs. Anderson's 4th-grade class has been enjoying science this year. We have been learning all about what energy is, how it is transferred, and how we use it in our everyday lives. The Springville Power Department sent each 4th grader a booklet and a pencil about electrical circuits and safety. It was great to connect what we are learning to our everyday lives and our community!
We are so proud of our Mustangs that participated in Reflections! Check out their awesome work:

We finished up our first science unit all about weather and climate patterns this past week. One of the things we learned about was natural disasters. We talked about hurricanes, what causes them to be so powerful, and how they can affect houses and other structures. We then built our own structures and tested them against our "hurricane" (fan). We tested them at three different speeds from one to three meters away. We built some pretty strong structures because all of them survived!
Today in Mrs Kadish's class, the students learned about the Fall season. They learned that there are signs they can notice that help them know that Fall is here. The students walked around the school with clipboards and marked down every time they noticed something about Fall. Some things they looked for were, leaves changing colors, leaves falling down, jackets, rakes, and pumpkins. It was a fun day!
We recently used our library time to learn about an awesome modern author, Jerry Pallotta. He has written many beautiful and interesting picture books, but the favorites around here are the books in his non-fiction Who Would Win? series. In each book, Jerry pairs up two different animals for a pretend battle, like killer whale vs. great white shark, polar bear vs. grizzly bear, and tyrannosaurus vs. velociraptor. The books teach facts about each animal, and the reader can use this information to predict who would win at the end.
