Mrs. Rauf's 1st grade students had a fun time investigating pumpkins on Halloween! They made predictions, weighed, and even counted all of the seeds inside their pumpkins. One of the pumpkins weighed 10 pounds, and had over 560 seeds! Thank you to our parent volunteers, Mrs. Albano and Mrs. Wolf, and our Reading Specialist Mrs. Carl, for leading groups through the experiment. Students had a really great time and learned a lot about pumpkins!

Three Greenville High School students took part in the virtual NYSSBA Student Art Exhibit!

Congratulations Jillian Aloisi (Cali the Cat, Oil Pastels), Guinevere Brickman (Feeding Our Future, Digital Photo & Paper Mache & Found Garbage), and Emma Cardamone (Moral Compass, Digital Drawing).

Mrs. Mulholland's and Mrs. Konas's class did a fun Halloween STEM activity on Monday! Students designed and tested catapults using a few different materials. Then, they tried their hand at some Pumpkin Games! They maintained their enthusiasm and perseverance through the entire 50 minutes of the activity time and cheered each other on. One pumpkin even catapulted 8 feet!

Sharkey and Snyder's Living Environment classes made their own toothpaste during a "Toothpaste Challenge Lab" today! Students were challenged with developing a new toothpaste formula that smells, looks, and tastes great - and doesn't cost a fortune to make (but also cleans well, too). Our Toothpaste Scientists recorded the names and amounts of each component that they chose to use. They were encouraged to choose an abrasive, a cleaning agent, a thickening agent, a soothing agent, water, flavor oils, a sweetener, and food coloring in their mixture. Once created, they brought their toothpaste to the front of the room for a final test - on an egg! The teacher in charge of the experiment dyed eggs with different commonly ingested materials like coffee, red wine, tea, and blue dye. Students then scrubbed away at the dyed eggs to test their toothpaste's cleaning power. Colgate hasn't reached out for any high school toothpaste recipes yet - but we'll hang onto this lab just incase :) Please note: For safety purposes, students were NOT allowed to try their creations, or any of the ingredients.
