Two Exciting Experience Weeks in June: Have Your 4th-8th Grade Student Join Us! Click To Learn More About Both Weeks

Posted on by Nichole S.

Immediately after the academic year end and before our summer program begins, Harborlight Montessori offers two robust and fun Experience Weeks. Students in grades 4th-8th are invited to register to join us.

MUSUEM SCHOOL

Upper School (4th -8th grade) 
Monday, June 20 through Friday, June 24

Did you know that Massachusetts has 228 museums? During this week, students will visit a different museum each day to explores themes in art, history, and science. Harborlight will equip each student with a sketchbook/observation journal for taking notes and drawing. They will explore exhibits and galleries, roam the grounds and halls, think critically, examine purposefully and be immersed in culture. They will also complete a scavenger hunt in Boston that highlights some of the city’s most spectacular murals and street art. The notes they take, memories they record, and images they sketch will serve as a visual diary of their studies.

MAIN STREETS AND BACK ROADS

Upper School (4th-8th grade)

Monday, June 27 through Friday, July 1

Much like Chronicle’s Main Streets and Back Roads, students will explore gardens, footpaths, statues, parks, trails, waterfronts, and more of our neighboring cities and town. Students will visit Gloucester, Salem, and Newburyport to explore tourist attractions, off-the-beaten-path destinations, notable architecture, and the hidden ‘quirky-corners’ of these communities. While on campus they will design a destination brochure for an imaginary  city or town of their own that is inspired by their favorite sights, sounds, and flavors from the week’s adventures.

West Gloucester Eagle

Posted on by Pat D

I came across this beautiful eagle in West Gloucester sitting in the tree as if waiting for a portrait session! 500 plus photos later, here are a few. Just stunning. We are blessed that the bald eagle has made such an amazing recovery from being endangered within my lifetime. We can do the same for other at-risk creatures! For additional pictures and story details, check out Pat D’s Photos and Adventures on Facebook.

I suggest you click on the link to this post and let it all load before you start clicking any buttons. The amount of cuteness overload will no doubt put a smile on your face. I suggest you grab a notepad and view the photos in the gallery at your leisure. I just spent 9.5 hours editing all the photos and creating the poll. A bit frazzled but guess what? It’s National Puppy Day, no better way to start our play in voting. Thanks again to Ray Cahill and Seaport Veterinary Hospital who answered the call in a big way and donated the prizes for when we have the tournament from the entrants you the voters select in this pre play-in tournament.

The top 64 vote getters will advance to the tournament. In the event of ties at the bottom of the 64 dogs will be selected by time of entry. It is labeled cutest dog but really it’s about which dog speaks to you personally. The dogs that finish in the top 64 will advance. This is just to get into the tournament. Vote below. share with friends and family that would like to see your dog in the tournament. If you are viewing this in the GMG email blast click the title of this post to go to the voting.

my head is spinning. What I will say is that there are some handsome dogs in this contest and that’s coming from a guy that isn’t even a dog person. I can’t wait to get this editing done so we can start the vote- in process.

Harbor

Posted on by Nichole S.

I love how the harbor and waterfront changes each day…. depending on the weather, who is in or out fishing, who is unloading etc. All was quiet the other day as a deep fog encased the outer harbor.

When Benda Leahy presented the award she remarked that she wished she could give it to Pat AND Jimmy based on all the great things they both do for the organization. That doesn’t surge one bit.

Congratulations Jimmy!

Spring is progressing in normal fashion.

Life in the leaves. Crocuses everywhere.
Death in the leaves. Looks as if the coyotes got the best of a deer.

Alert sentinel for the napping seals, Brace Cove.
Herring Gulls are ubiquitous, but fun to watch.

I Made Some Gloucester Custom “Bat Signals” To Share With Your Friends When You’re Heading To The Bar

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

Scottie Mac had one made for The Nest and we would share it in the circle in text chains when rallying the troops to meet up.

I figured that I could upgrade the one he put together and make a bunch for the watering holes we frequent.

You can right click and save these particular images to your phone to use with your friends.

You’re welcome!
