A Message from Principal Dumar

Hello Bradfield Families!

Thanks to the Bradfield PTA who graciously funded the visit of renowned non-fiction author, Melissa Stewart. She shared her love of reading and writing non-fiction books with students and staff. She encouraged students to use non-fiction text features to enhance their writing. Not only did the students enjoy their visit but the staff got into the spirit as well and helped Melissa Stewart celebrate the birthday of her new book, Mega-Predators of the Past.

Kindergartners joined in their traditional Fairy Tale Day in a culminating project as they wrapped up learning what makes a story a fairy tale. The activities were enjoyed by knights, Goldie Locks, princesses, the 3 little pigs and many more characters. Thank you to our Kindergarten teachers and parents for continuing this loved tradition.

If you haven’t checked out the fall bulletin board in the entryway of the building, you still have time. Thank you to 3rd grade mom, Brooke Ryan for taking time to personalize it with an adorable Bradfield turkey and pumpkin pie.

The writer of the week was second grader, Tag Robinson, from Ms. Fischer’s class. His assignment was to write a persuasive writing piece using his opinions. Tag convinced the listeners to upgrade their smaller Alexa to the large Alexa with his animated reading skills. One of the top reasons was because it is louder and we all know louder is better! Great job, Tag!

I encourage you to check out the Broncoland spotlight below. This week’s highlights include: Fairy Tale Day, Author Visit and Science Lab.

I look forward to seeing you and your children at the front door!
