A Whale of a Time!
Every year second graders get a chance to visit our neighbors at the CSH Whaling Museum and learn about our town’s history and its connection to this majestic mammal and our whaling heritage. The museum’s archives and immersive galleries and hands-on workshops, guided by docents, provide a unique visit. Students are sent on a scavenger hunt within the museum, and with 6000 pieces in their collection – the hunt for artifacts kept the students very busy!

Gierasch, joined students in grades 2-6 from both Lloyd Harbor and West Side School for pancakes while discussing what these students love about their school, what improvements perhaps could be made, and sharing ideas to think about.

Art – Masks, Molas & Cityscapes
Collaborations are always taking place within the curriculum incorporating learning through social studies, art, technology, FLES and often music as well. Here, fifth graders from West Side and Lloyd Harbor studied ancient Peru in class and studied the culture and language from South America. Masks were work for many ceremonies like birth, marriage and preparation for war. Some masks are pleasant, colorful and fun, while others can be scary! Art teacher, Andria McLaughlin, then had the students add bright colors to these papier amazing mâché masks.
