Fourth grade students were able to make slime on the last day of school. Students were given glue, contact solution, and baking soda and mixed it all together, and if their slime didn’t turn out, they had to figure out if what secret ingredient needed to be added to make it better. It was so enjoyable to see the kiddos, helping each other out and finding a solution!
Students at GFW Elementary received a warm welcome from Mrs. Sharon Schiro to celebrate the last day of school!
Students at GFW Elementary were so excited to celebrate the class of 2023 today!
