5th grade had a generous donation of field hockey sticks for Ms. Erin and Mr. Wallace to be able to generate interest (there’s LOTS of it) and learn all about Field Hockey! Mrs. Colby and Mrs. Girard were also awesome team players and allowed Ms. Erin to have extra PE with the 5th grade so we could host a 2 time state champ Coach from Gardiner, Coach Sharon, at a skills clinic…. It was an awesome opportunity and the kids loved it!



5th grade presented their cardboard kinetic art projects during the GSB 5th grade cardboard ARTcade event this week where they invited the 4th grade to participate and win prizes. Students have worked on this project exploring the design engineer process while learning specific cardboard attachment techniques to create sturdy and interactive compositions. This 8 week unit was inspired by Caine's Arcade (see the video here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=faIFNkdq96U)








Happy Friday everyone! Here's the Friday Flyer for November 1st 2024.
