GPAC
7th grade students will all have the opportunity to participate in an elective course taught by one of our school counselors. GPAC stands for Guidance: Personal, Academic and Career and each class focuses on one of these aspects of the guidance curriculum. On this visit, Ms. Bensinger was teaching class and she had a quote on the board that really stuck with me...
"Assumptions are the termites of relationships"--think about it--can you relate to this quote?
Technology Education
7th Grade students in Mr. Durchin's class were watching demonstrations on how to complete the sheet metal project they will be completing in class. For some students watching the demonstration is a great way to build an understanding of what they will need to do...
For other students, turning the directions into song will really help them remember the necessary steps...
Health
Mr. Martin's health students were working on how to handle challenging situations that they might encounter. After the students learned the steps of dealing with situations, students got in groups and were given different scenarios to work through to test their new skills!
Science
There is nothing quite like studying for a test--especially when you can make it fun. Student's in Ms. Kelly's class had a great time preparing for a test by playing a game.
Social Studies
Mr. Strayer's students were completing a word splash activity that would help them build a better understanding of the US Constitution.
Family and Consumer Science
There were a variety of things going on in Ms. Kinney's 8th Grade Family and Consumer Science class. Some students were using their graphic organizer to make sure they were sewing their buttons correctly, some students were self-assessing their project and some students were making knit hats!
