To students receiving individualized homework support in the multi-use room.
I also visited two of the ACE program sites this Friday.
At the Silverado Middle School program, I met Coach Tracey Emberley and her students in Silk Screening club.
The students explained the process of creating a silk screened print from sketching the design to creating the screen to the printing process itself.
The students get to create their own designs and follow the process through to the end product, learning valuable skills along the way.
At Harvest Middle School, we checked out lesson conducted by the CalSERVES AmeriCorps members focusing on propulsion. The team worked with students to test their creations.
Students come back in the classroom to modify their designs after testing.
