Kindergarten finds out that shaving cream can be used to create art (and it cleans the tables really well too!).
Blue boys basketball and Red boys basketball played a fierce game tonight with Blue taking the Win by 10 points. The Cheerleaders did an excellent job rooting for both teams! It was an exciting game to watch and a great half time show! Well done both teams on how much you have developed this season!
Congratulations to the GSB Spelling Bee Winners in the school wide competition! They will both go on to compete at the Regional Spelling Bee in February.

After 3 days of inside recess, we decided to turn our Kindergarten classroom into an Antarctica obstacle course! Kindergarteners pretended to be penguins. We hopped on rocks, crawled through an ice cave, ate fish in the sea, carried “eggs” on our feet, jumped on icebergs to avoid predators and slid on our bellies through the snow.
Great Salt Bay has the BEST cheering squad. They motivated our players and audience during the three intense basketball games Wednesday night! The Red boys won a nail biter of a game against Richmond, Blue boys lost a hard fought game against Woolwhich and Girls won against Richmond!
The crowd was on the edge of their seats during all three games and the near constant encouragement from the stands was a sight to see and definitely a motivator for the players!
How do 4th graders make the most of inside recess on those super cold days? Here's how...

Cindy from the Knox-Lincoln Soil & Water Conservation District visited Ms Tracy’s class to teach a lesson on the importance of animal habits. The students helped sort animals and plants into their different homes and learned what happens when habitats are destroyed. The students will soon begin working on their poster for the yearly contest. The theme this year is Home is where the Habitat is.
