2019 Halloween Festivities

Picture
Halloween week gave the students many reasons to celebrate.  Not only did they get to dress in their favorite costumes for the annual Boo Bash, but they were also visited by the very special GSS Room Moms.  Boo Bash brought games, inflatables, and many bags of candied goodies to campus.  Later in the week, the Room Mothers brought treats, arts & crafts, and games during enrichment.  Students mummified each other, made skeletons, and much more.  In the end, everyone had a fun and safe Halloween week.

PK Recycles with Green Project

Picture
Recently the PK4 classes completed their unit on recycling.  To enhance the lesson for the students, the PK4 teachers partnered with The Green Project.  This allowed students to visit their facility to see recycling in action.  Students also created their own homemade recycling projects by building a robot out of recycled materials.  Students learned the importance of sustainable materials and how to assist in preserving our earth for many generations to come.

While studying their unit on maps, GSS 1st grade teachers Ms. Morgan and Ms. Rachel wanted the students to have a hands-on experience and "step into their maps."  To achieve this goal, GSS 1st graders built a 3D map of their home and neighborhood.  The students included things like trees, plants, cars, fire hydrants, street signs, and much more onto their 3D maps.  The students then brought the projects to school so that they could tell their classmates about their neighborhood and the the fun things they do with their friends in the neighborhood.  In the end, students were able to use their creativity to sculpt their masterpiece neighborhoods.
