6th - Supply List

Hey 6th graders!  News about your $6.75...

Your student has started a new Exploratory Elective this week!  His/her group has left Drama and is now in Family and Consumer Sciences.  The 6^th graders this year will be making a Locker Caddy to hang in their lockers to use for organization. 

The cost is $6.75 and should be paid by Thursday, Feb 9, 2012.  It is preferable students pay in cash, but checks will be accepted.    

Students should take the cash or check for $6.75 to Mrs. Anderson in the front office.  She will accept money before and after school and during lunch, she will not accept payments in between classes. Mrs. Anderson will give your student a receipt which will need to be turned into me.  No receipt = not paid.  Students will not be able to do sewing project until payment is made. 

We have some students who cannot afford the cost of the project; if your family is interested in donating to a supplies scholarship fund, please let me know. 

Please, if the cost of this project is cannot be provided by our family, please contact me so I can make other arrangements.

Sewing, Sewing, Sewing!

All grades spent the last week sewing. What creativity, teamwork, and perseverance I have seen in the classroom!  I have taken a few photos but cannot get them off of phone and onto computer!  Here are some from a yearbook camera - 7th grade aprons.  Good work team!

6th - Puppets Away!

6th graders are learning about peer pressure this week and doing a project to raise their self esteem.  Ask your student what self esteem is and how to increase their own as well as a friends.  In class, they are creating puppets that will eventually be used to practice refusal skills?  What are refusal skills? Talk to your student and see if you can figure it out.  We'll be talking about it in class on Tuesday.

6th - Supply List

6th Graders should bring in $6.75 to pay for their sewing project as soon as possible.
