April 7-8, 2014

Students learned about the parts of the sewing machine they will be using and what they are used for. We will finish identifying the parts tomorrow in preparation for a quiz next Friday, April 11th on 12 different parts of the sewing machines. They will also use this information while practicing on the machines, as well as winding bobbins and threading the machines next Thursday. On my website on the CTE games page, there is also a "Parts of the Sewing machine" review PowerPoint that the kids can print and cut out to use as flash cards to help them review for this quiz. Students were also assigned a Career Research assignment to research a career in the clothing and textile industry. These will be due on Friday, April 11th during each class period.
