ADST- Sewing

12/7/2021

Today was a great day of fun and learning. After music students completed the 24th piece of writing for their writing project. They only have two pieces left to complete. All the writing must be completed in draft form by Friday. For math, students were introduced to multiplying decimals and they reviewed adding in subtracting standard fractions. After lunch we continued to practice classroom French phrases and then started our sewing project for Applied Design and Skills Technology. It was great to see students working hands-on learning different stitches. Keep up the great work!
