Fifth-graders at Birch Lane Elementary School in the Massapequa School District are serving as Santa’s elves during the holiday season. As part of the annual toy drive, students in John Coyne’s class travel the school each day and collect items generously donated by their peers.

The toys will be donated to the John Theissen Children’s Foundation, which assists sick and underprivileged children.

The school has been participating in the collection drive for more than a decade and has collected more than 11,000 toys since the first year.

The theme for this year’s

toy drive is kindness.

All students who make a donation received a pencil and kindnessthemed coloring sheet.

The completed drawings By: Jamie Lynn Ryan will be collected and then hung around the school to Just five days until up yet. Alas, my apartment layer of dirt and ground-up spread holiday cheer and Christmas, and I suppose I doesn’t allow for a furry four- leaves, and contemplating should begin my shopping legged friend; besides, my how to shove all things not goodwill.

Last on the List

soon. It’s funny, with the sole exception of Black Friday when I purchased precisely one gift - I haven’t done so much as compile a list in the days that have elapsed.

Perhaps it’s because, save for the usual collection of gift cards and standard annual favorites, there is rarely an occasion when anyone can offer a suggestion of what they would like.

Not that I am much better when it comes to this.

Most years, a gift card is just as good as any particular object I can come up with, or maybe tickets to an upcoming concert or ballgame. Of course, there are always my two standbys - a trip to Disney World to “meet Mickey,” and a puppy. Yes, the 3 year-old child in me hasn’t quite grown

Christmas-related into any available corner of the closet.

Gift shopping, or even listmaking, not so much.

And yet somehow, some way, everything manages to get done each year… even if, at times, it has included wrapping presents in the corner of my bedroom as company arrives on Christmas Eve. No need for ribbons and bows, as long as the box is (relatively) covered and the right person winds up with the appropriate package.

In everything, it’s the thought that counts.

little baby betta Spud would be jealous.

They say people have become increasingly thoughtless in the age of technology, opting to do most of their shopping online and “mail it in” when it comes to selecting the perfect present. I, for one, still prefer to personally browse the stores, even if I have a fairly good idea of what I want to buy. Nothing quite compares to that personal touch.

So why have I barely begun this process with less than a week remaining ‘til Christmas? An excellent question, deflected by a focus on de-twinkling my flickering window lights, decorating my balcony just in time for the annual cleaning-of-thegutters to completely cover everything in a fine black

Hour of Code in third, fourth and fifth grades did more advanced programming centered on the popular computer game Minecraft.

“The children are not just playing the game, they’re doing the programming,” said library media specialist Tara Gonzalez, who explained that everyone could work at their own pace. She added that the process teaches children patience and helps them develop their problem-solving skills.

East Lake Elementary School offered different game-based coding activities that varied by level such as Candy Quest for third grade and the Amazing World of Gumball for fourth grade. These games taught students about the computer programming language Scratch.

“Hour of Code gives our students an exciting

opportunity to learn about coding,” said Executive Director for Technology and General Administration Bryan Piotrowski. “The program engages students and inspires them to learn more about computer science.”

Mr. Piotrowski explained that many students on the secondary level do coding throughout the year in technology and computer science courses, in addition to participating in the Hour of Code.

Lockhart Elementary School fourth-graders Niko Samaras and Lexi Nutter both enjoyed participating in Hour of Code and said they learned a lot about programming. They said it opened their eyes into how much work goes into the creation of their favorite video games.

“It’s very important to learn,” Lexi said. “You get to show your creativity.”

Cooking and crafts come together each month at Berner Middle School in the Massapequa School District, as students participate in holiday and seasonal activities during the after-school club.

The Cooking and Crafts Club has approximately 125 members. The club is so popular that there is a separate session for sixthgraders, which accounts for about half of the membership. Adviser Lisa Tuniewicz leads the club

with support from fellow Family and Consumer Science teachers Kristen Kenny and Patricia McDermott.

In October, students made a Halloween craft, lollipop ghosts, and cheese and pretzel-stick spider webs, while in November they decorated cookies to look like turkeys. For December, they took part in the schoolwide holiday door-decorating contest by coming up with designs for the four classroom doors

the club was assigned.

Sixth-graders, like Ella Livingston and Casey Mangan, say they like the creativity that the projects allow. They also enjoy sharing ideas with their classmates.

“I like doing crafts and I like cooking, too,” added seventh-grader Natalie Wipperman. “The activities are all really fun and not something that you would see or do everyday.”

Students in the Massapequa School District were among the millions of youngsters from across the world who participated in Hour of Code activities during the week of December 4th8th. The global initiative

by Code.Org is an annual event that introduces children and teenagers to computer programming, and this was the fourth year the district has participated.

In the six elementary schools, library media specialists and computer teacher assistants worked together to lead coding activities for students, which were done on both desktop computers and Chromebooks. At Lockhart Elementary School, children in kindergarten through second-grade used the program Kodable, which allowed them to do basic coding using the arrow keys. Students

Individuals from AHRC Suffolk’s Day Habilitation programs and the Suffolk County Parks Department formed a unique partnership to help breathe life back into the Meadowedge Greenhouse Cooperative located on the West Sayville Golf Course.

On December 12th, Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone and Suffolk County Legislator Kara Hahn paid a visit to the facility and the individuals working there.

The greenhouse is open to the public Monday – Friday 10:30am – 1:30pm for all your holiday plant needs.

All the proceeds from plant sales help support this program.

Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone and Suffolk County Legislator Kara Hahn discuss the greenhouse with Kathy C. an individual that works at the greenhouse with AHRC Suffolk’s Day Habilitation program.

Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone and Suffolk County Legislator Kara Hahn toured the Meadowedge Cooperative Greenhouse and met with individuals who are maintaining the greenhouse from AHRC Suffolk’s Day Habilitation programs.

December Charity of the Month:

HARMONY CAFÉ

Harmony Café is a non-profit with a mission to reduce food insecurity by serving healthy, yet affordable, meals to all who walk through their door.

They’re a proud member of and are based off the established nonprofit restaurant business model developed by the One World Everyone Eats Foundation.

When one enters Harmony Café, they will notice there’s a suggested donation of $10, but guests have the option to pay less, pay more to pay it forward, pay nothing, or opt to volunteer at the Café in exchange for a meal - the option of earning a meal without being plagued by the stigma of a handout.

This café currently offers one 2 ½ hour event (a fresh meal and entertainment)

on the second Wednesday of each month. They operate out of the VFW Hall at 32 Edwards Street in Patchogue; but with a heart full of passion and the energy of a lion, founder and director Rosemarie McCarthy has a goal to open a storefront for the Café which will operate five days a week for lunch and dinner.

Volunteers are needed in the following areas: event planning; volunteer coordinating; servers and kitchen help; community outreach and fundraising.

Most importantly, volunteer board members are needed.

If you’re interested in becoming involved or can sponsor one of their events, please contact Rosemarie at Info@ HarmonyCafeLI.org or at 631.372.0227.

A Few Other Organizations YOU Can Volunteer With...

Aid to the Developmentally Disabled, Inc. (ADD) ~ Riverhead www.ADDNY.org

This organization exists to promote and enhance the quality of life for people with disabilities. They are based administratively in Riverhead, but they have 32 residences that span the East End of Long Island into mid-Suffolk County. ADD is currently in need of volunteers to help fundraise, sponsors for their next big fundraising event happening on March 15th, and donations for the following renovations/items listed on their wish list at www.ADDNY.org/Our-Wish-List.

If you are interested in becoming involved with this organization, please contact them at 631.727.6220, ext. 203, or Info@ADDNY.com.

Lighthouse Mission ~ Bellport www.LighthouseMission.com

Lighthouse Mission was established in 1992 and exists to share the Gospel of Jesus and feed the poor right here on Long Island; their motto is “Providing Hope Beyond The Food.” They are located in Bellport, and they have mobile food distribution sites across the island. This organization is in need of volunteers to help hand out food each day at different locations, to help collect food, and to help with their teen and children’s programs. They are also in need of financial donations. To become involved with this organization, please contact their ministry via email – General Info: Info@LighthouseMission.com / Teen Programs: Youth@LighthouseMission.com / Children’s Programs: MissionKids@LighthouseMission.com / Daily Food Outreaches: Outreach@LighthouseMission.com.

If you would like your organization to be featured in this column, e-mail Noelle@SouthBaysNeighbor.com

Caring For Granite Countertops (NAPSI)—Granite countertops are the most popular option available when it comes to kitchen or bathroom remodeling.

They look great, they’re durable, but they can also cost thousands of dollars.

Granite requires special care and attention because it’s a natural stone. Here are a few tips to help you protect your investment:

• Seal your countertops: According to the Marble Institute of America, an industry group, granite countertops should be sealed so that the stone is more resistant to dirt and spills. Check with the manufacturer or retailer about the best kind of sealer to use on food preparation areas.

• Be careful what

you clean with: Never use ammonia—based products-or cleaners containing vinegar, lemon or orange—on your granite countertops. Avoid abrasive cleaners such as dry or soft cleansers. Don’t use cleaning products that contain acid such as bathroom, grout, or tub and tile cleaners. Specialty granite cleaners can be

used, but they can be expensive. There’s a way to stretch your dollars.

• Mind your budget: JAWS Glass & Hard Surface Cleaner (www.jawscleans. com) cleans granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, glass and even your flat-screen TV. It’s also non-toxic and costs less than most other cleaners because each

JAWS product is actually two bottles in one. (The cartridge refill is attached to the bottle.)

There are also some other basic preventive measures you can take to protect your granite countertops: • Use coasters: Place a coaster under all glasses, particularly those containing alcohol or

citrus juices that can etch or dull the surface of many stone countertops.

• Use trivets or mats: They’ll protect your granite countertop from hot dishes and help avoid scratches.

Granite countertops can really add spark to a kitchen or bathroom.

Proper care will keep them looking beautiful.
