It’s been a busy month for students at Aquebogue School. The children have learned about autism and participated in the science fair.
The school recently held an assembly to help students understand autism as part of National Autism Awareness Month. The students watched a short video about the condition and then participated in a question and answer period afterward. The assembly culminated with students creating an autism awareness display out of puzzle pieces they had colored.
In addition, the students held a school-wide science fair. The fair featured a variety of science projects by students in grades K through 4, with topics related to melting ice, slime eggs and gummy bears.
In order from first through third place by grade level, this year’s winners were: kindergarten – Julien Michaels, Peter Sargent and Lila Corwin; first grade – Ty Haugland (first), Jason Hubbard and Addison White (tied for second) and Ellie Rebentisch and Arianna Salcedo (tied for third); second grade – Braedyn MacLeod, Madeline Schmidt and VonTrice Major; third grade – Landon Zaleski (first), Quinn Stromski and Julianna Kramer (tied for second), and Julianna Kramer and Casey Hubbard (tied for third); and fourth grade – Dillon Zaleski, Aaliyah Williams and Antonia Cederna.
These students now have the opportunity to compete in Brookhaven National Laboratory’s annual Elementary School Science Fair on May 5.
