The Pilgrims Say "Thanks!" We had a fun day on Thursday, November 16th, celebrating our annual Thanksgiving Feast. Students from Brookeside Montessori are pictured dressing in Pilgrim costumes, saying their Thanksgiving rhyme--"The bread is fresh, the water is clear, thank you all for being here! Happy Thanksgiving!".
For Veteran’s Day, PM kindergarten and Mrs. Marks’ enrichment class enjoyed a visit from Veteran SMSgt George Fritz. He talked to the students about the importance of taking care of the flag, respecting the flag and how to fold a flag.
Brookeside Montessori Preschool students were thrilled to take part in our annual Halloween party! We snacked on homemade pumpkin ice cream sandwiches, danced the Monster Mash and the Purple People Eater (with air guitars), and played some Halloween themed games including the Pumpkin in the Dark, Ring around the Witch's Hat, and Ping Pong bounce with 'eyeballs'.
Hooray for Hay Rides! Let's pick pumpkins! Brookeside Montessori Preschool traveled to Savidge Farms in Mertztown on Thursday, October 19th, 2017. See some highlights from the trip including a hayride with our families, a movie in the barn, and choosing our own pumpkins fresh from the field!
Migrating Monarchs. In September the Brookeside Montessori Elementary class met with Ron Richael, a local expert on butterflies. Mr. Richael showed the children his butterfly garden.
