The students in Teaching as a Career have been learning about the classroom environment, and how bulletin boards are a great way to share exciting new content, display student work, or build classroom culture. Mrs. Lange offered us a great opportunity to practice this, and allowed us to create a bulletin board meant to generate excitement with their Kansas Day celebration today! Happy 164th Birthday, Kansas!
Mr. Craig's Welding II/Fabrication students are in the middle of all kinds of different projects, including:

It is Movie Mania in Mrs. Artman's Graphic Design class! Students were assigned to create a promotional poster of a movie or TV series. They could choose which one they wanted, and the only requirement was it had to be different than the original.
Isosceles and equilateral triangles were on the brains of Mrs. Weller's Geometry students this morning. They were reviewing an assignment dealing with measurements and angles using story problems.
