Good Morning Parents/Guardians,
A lot of activity at GBS this week for our students. From the day to day functions of classes and learning opportunities to the special trip to Edmunds Ace and the Harris Center. Learning has continued here at GBS
The play design crew took a special trip down to Edmunds Ace in town to go shopping for set construction. A special thanks to Rick Edmund who help plan out and source materials for the very large mastodon prop at a discounted price! Their support of the GBS programming is greatly appreciated.
CVHS Information Night for our 8th grade GBS parents is this Thursday, 2/15 in the Lucy Hurlin Theater at 5:45 PM.
As always, thanks for partnering with us as we work with your students!
Sincerely,
Adam Caragher, Principal ~ GBS
From Nurse Bernardi:
Nutrition and physical activity are crucial to a child’s development. Sleep is just as important! The amount and quality of sleep we have can affect our safety, how alert we are, as well as our memories, moods, behavior, and learning abilities. Establishing good sleep patterns can benefit the entire family. Here are some tips to help your child get the sleep their growing bodies need;
- Limit screen time before bed- avoiding all screens for at least an hour before bedtime.
- Getting exercise during the day- This can result in better sleep but avoid too much physical activity close to bedtime. Yoga and stretching can promote restfulness.
- Have a routine which may include relaxing activities such as- reading, writing in a journal, meditation, a warm bath, quiet music.
Practicing a good bedtime routine can promote happy and healthy youth. It can also improve school performance!
