Fourth graders in Mrs. Kenig's Science Class at Garfield School engaged in a Mystery Science Lesson. In this lesson, students explored how heat is another form of energy that can make things go. Students made a paper Heat Spinner and observed how air created movement. Then, students used their Heat Spinners to experiment with a heat source (an incandescent bulb) and discover how heat energy can make the spinner move in different ways.





Our Kindergarten scientists at Garfield School are officially weather observers! 🔬 They created these awesome Breeze Buddies to help them study and track the wind. Learning is a breeze with this hands-on project! 💨










Garfield School: Mr. McShane's art students are learning about pointillism, which is a technique that involves creating art with dots. This technique requires patience, but the results are unique and beautiful. Pointillism lends itself well to nature which was the subject of this project. The students created beautiful artwork!

Garfield School second graders in Mrs. Mancuso's class participated in a fun challenge to start the new school year. Students had to pretend they were stuck on an island in the hot sun. They needed to design a hat to help protect them from sunburn. Properties such as softness, stiffness, and sweat-soaking materials were considered when designing.

Garfield School: 6th-grade social studies classes wrapped up their first lesson on ancient artifacts and cave drawings with hands-on projects! Students used clay to design artifacts like pottery, arrowheads, and animal carvings, while others created posters with painted cave drawings that reproduced ancient images. A creative way to bring history to life!
