Volume XXIV No. 34 Hometown Newspaper for Glen Cove, Sea Cliff, Glen Head, Glenwood, Locust Valley and Brookville Week of 4/23/15 75C Students, Sea Stars and Fun First-grade students from Gribbin School in Glen Cove received an up-close look at sea stars when representatives from Oyster Bay’s WaterFront Center visited their school.

At the presentation, students were educated about how sea stars eat, see and move. They also learned about the absence of bones and blood in their bodies. The children listened carefully as Marine Educator Kayla Kraker read “Spiny Sea Star A Tale of Seeing Star” by Suzanne Tate and had an opportunity to touch and feel live sea stars and clams. First grade teacher Giselle Taylor said her students would use what they learned about sea stars to create an image on the computer app Doodle Buddy, which she plans to incorporate into an iMovie along with photos from the presentation.

“A hands-on lesson like this creates a memory that lasts forever,” Taylor said. “In this school and in this district we try to create educational experiences that last a lifetime.”

In addition, to touching and feeling the animals, students created a sea star from construction paper and designed it using crayons, glue and sand. WaterFront marine educator Kayla Kraker showed students Ashley Amaya, Edwin Delgado and Saoirse Fiedor (r) a sea star during her visit.

North Shore will continue on to the First Robotics World Championship in St. Louis on April 22-25, with their robot, Patches O'Houlihan! Mr. Peroni said, “Consistency was the key. Our drivers rose up in the face of adversity, under tremendous pressure. With every round, the team got better and better and scored more and more points.” The North Shore Robotics team (Team 3950), known as Robo Gym, is named after the movie Dodgeball and is comprised of 42 students (approximately one-third of the team are girls)..
