Week of 8/30

The sixth grade is continuing with the counselor lesson on emotions. These are going well. They do all work in class. We also began sewing. We are learning the machine parts and soon will be learning how to thread a machine.

Seventh grade is also sewing. We are learning parts of the machine and hand sewing stitches so when I let them loose on their projects they will know what to do. If you have missed...look up how to do blanket stitch and a finishing knot on you tube then practice at home.
