We are proud to fund guest-artist Mr. Vician’s visit to @BraesideSch112 with a #FoundationGrant. 4th and 5th graders learned about ancient Korean stoneware, self expression, design process, & all about ceramic art. Thank you @kpolyack and Ms. Harvey for their leadership.
May your break contain as much joy as these snowflake-catchers exude! #112leads @BraesideSch112 #d112teachers
I love when my two subjects connect! This week’s art project was about creating rhythm in a painting. We are excited to use these rhythmic papers for our collage project next week. #112leads @BraesideSch112 #d112teachers
First graders enjoyed working on two-handed xylophone skill-building during the ostinato of “Skin and Bones.” 👵🏻 @BraesideSch112 #112leads #d112teachers
🪩DISCO PARTY🪩 Fifth grade @BraesideSch112 students enjoyed painting multifaceted disco balls but the REAL fun came when the black lights came out! #112leads #d112teachers
Sometimes if you’ve got a partner hand clapping game but an uneven number of students, you ask the armadillo if he’d like to join. @BraesideSch112 #112leads #d112teachers
Peak moment today! A past student of mine, who starred as Aesop in SW 2nd gr’s “Bebop With Aesop,” is now a COLLEAGUE! Welcome (back) to the family, Mr. Gonzalez! @SherwoodPandas @nwhuskies #112leads #d112teachers
Friday smiles abound before this long weekend! @BraesideSch112 #112leads #d112teachers
Having fun solo singing “Who Has the Penny” while classmates try and guess the singer based on their vocal timbre. @BraesideSch112 #112leads #d112teachers
What a lovely teacher appreciation gift! This student made the music room out of legos, complete with curved windows, risers, and all! Work doesn’t feel like “work” when you’re surrounded by such thoughtfulness and sweetness! @BraesideSch112 #112leads #d112teachers
What a beautiful start to the day- thank you PTO for the beautiful succulents, thank you @MrsJamieKahn for the perfect book, and to the mystery children who filled my board with loving messages and helpful guitar notation instructions! 😄💓💓@BraesideSch112 #112leads
2nd graders enjoying some folk song singing coupled with movement. 🎶 “We’re sailing down the river, we’re sailing down below. We’re sailing down the river, down the Ohio. Two in the middle and they can’t jump over… “ 🎶 @BraesideSch112 #112leads #d112teachers
(Student sitting quietly after singing a song, tears rolling down her cheeks:) “I just love that song so much that it’s coming out of my eyes.” Kids are the best. @BraesideSch112 #112leads #d112teachers
Our Braeside Chorus members were so excited to perform for each other in a talent show during recess. We got to watch original compositions, dances, vocal solos and duets, string players, pianists, and more! @BraesideSch112 #112leads #d112teachers
Having a grand time with one of our favorite classic folk songs, “Cut the Cake!” 🎂@BraesideSch112 #112leads #d112teachers
Overheard in 2nd gr line: “yeah I like Aquarium too, but it’s just, like, soOOooOo largo. Can Can is better because it’s more presto and it has dynamics that change.” Thank you @Quaver_Ed for enriching our response to and analysis of listening samples. #112Leads #d112teachers
First grade @BraesideSch112 students are working in partners to listen and provide feedback on their partner’s playing.
Ss take turns sharing music influential to their lives. We speak more than 22 languages at home, including Korean, Xhosa, Hindi, Romanian, Hebrew, Russian, Slovakian, & Turkish! After hearing the songs, we work in groups to uncover musical elements. #112Leads @BraesideSch112
We celebrated a full semester’s work by doing a gallery walk. Students toured the room and questioned, commented on, and critiqued their classmates’ work. @IndianTrailScho #112leads #d112teachers
