Books and treats made for a SWEET evening at @BCSDKidder on Wednesday night at their Dessert Night Book Swap! Families exchanged books while enjoying hot cocoa and cookies from Travelin Toms. Students discovered new stories as parents engaged in reading time together. Events like these make reading fun for the whole family and help foster lifelong readers. Any leftover books were donated to local charities, spreading the joy of reading throughout our community! #BrunswickPRIDE #JourneyOfABlueDevil

Our students' creativity is MONSTROUS! Yesterday, @BCSDKidder 3rd graders had a blast designing their own monsters, which will then be turned into 3D sculptures by the ceramic students at Strongsville High School. They brainstormed and sketched their ideas, learning that sometimes you have to tweak and revise to get to the final version you want. They focused on the details, considering how their monsters' hands and eyes would look and what materials would cover their bodies, all while keeping in mind how easy it would be to sculpt their designs. Students adjusted and refined their monsters, realizing that you don’t have to get everything perfect on the first try. On Friday, they'll take their rough drafts and start working on the final pieces, picking how they want to add color to their drawings. This project is way more than just an art assignment! It’s all about sticking with it and finding ways to express themselves through art. A big shoutout to Kidder art teacher Mr. Vance for making this project happen! #BrunswickPRIDE #JourneyOfABlueDevil
