Adios, Tom
This will be my last “tweet” from GSL. My wife and I will embark on a new adventure, starting in Mexico. I wish Marti McCloud all the best as she leads the Lower School at GSL.
Time for some year-end cleaning of chairs and a little bit of water fun. Today is the last day of school for our SK students and for Mrs. Shannon, who's showered us with her love and care for 35 years!
It's time to chill after exerting all that energy playing games. Nothing like a "Bomb Pop" to cool us down.
The LS had a wonderful day for their "Game Day!" What a way to celebrate the last Monday of the last week of school for the 2018-2019 school year!
Grade 2 students shared a special reader's theatre surrounding the true story of the Three Little Pigs. At the end of the story the students voted on whether Alexander T. Wolf was guilty of a serious crime. You'll need to check in with a second grader to learn the outcome!
SK students hosted their parents and friends at the "We Sew Put ART in pARTy!" party. Students shared works of art created during the year and feasted on special snacks designed for the special pARTy!
Grade 3 performed "Summer Camp" today before a PS and LS audience. The play helped us get in the "it's almost summer" mode. Thanks third graders for a fantastic musical and getting us excited for the end of the school year.
SK teachers and students are hosting a special Mother's Day Luncheon! How fun. Thanks moms for all you do! Happy Mother's Day!
Grade 4 students spending time on a robotics lesson during technology time. It's great to see our oldest and wisest students in the LS collaborating, problem solving, and excited about learning. How engaging!
Grade 4 presented "A Kid's Life" to the PS and LS this morning. The oldest and wisest of the LS are taking the stage for the last time tomorrow morning (Wednesday) at 8:30 as LS students. Can you believe it? They will soon be in the MS! How cool.
The oldest and the wisest of the Lower School are enjoying snack and independent reading time on a Monday morning. What a great way to start the week!
The Rockin' Robins had a special visitor today!
Presiding Bishop Michael Curry stopped by the SK classrooms. The Presiding Bishop is here for various activities connected with the ordination and installation of Bishop elect Phoebe Roaf. How exciting!
While the 4th graders are in St. Louis, our 3rd graders have stepped up to the plate for Safety Patrol. Today, students from Mrs. Alberson’s class ensured a safe arrival for our LS families!
With 4th graders on their class trip, students from Ms. Gephart’s class helped out with Safety Patrol today. Our soon to be “oldest and wisest” of the LS!
4th graders participated in a special Literature Circle activity, facilitated by administrators from GSL. One focus of our discussions was tying each book to the different Formative Five success skills.
4th graders designed special structures to withstand earthquakes. Once designed and built, teachers assumed the role of being the shakers (earthquakes) and determined which structures could withstand the force of an earthquake. Finally, the students reflected on key questions.
You know it's spring when the SK students take the stage and present "How Does Your Garden Groove?" The performance was quite aPEELing and will aPEAS audiences of all ages. It can't be BEET. SK will perform for parents and friends tomorrow (Wednesday) at 8:30!
