Learn About Brookfield Reads

Join us for our virtual, night-time event, Brookfield Reads!

In 2021-22, Brookfield is doing a monthly, virtual read-aloud. Each month teachers will share a special book with their students. The students will reflect on the book and start working on their visual journals. Then we will invite the Brookfield Community to join us for a reading of the book.

The link (brookfield.link/reads) will be open the night we have our virtual event.

We hope to see everyone for Brookfield Reads!

Call for Photos

Do you have a picture of your child at a holiday celebration?

The next book for Brookfield Reads is about sharing important holiday celebrations with your friends. We would love to show pictures of our students sharing their special occasions. We are going to put together a slideshow of all the pictures we collect for the morning news.

Photos will not be shared on Social Media or on our Brookfield website. We are only sharing them with students during the morning news show and on Schoology.
