What's Cooking in FACS

As We Come To The End...
It is hard to believe that the year is almost over! I have had a wonderful time with your children this semester. I hope that you all have a safe and enjoyable summer break.
Etiquette
We have been learning about proper etiquette and table place setting. Your children were able to demonstrate their lovely manners with their teachers that who were invited to dine with them. The students prepared an amazing French Toast Breakfast. It was great to see them as the young ladies and gentlemen that they are.
Sewing
Has your child brought home his or her Felt Friend creation? We practiced hand sewing and each child created their own Felt Friend. I am amazed at their creativity! For the close of the year we are learning how to use a sewing machine and they will be constructing a Trailside Pillow.
Cupcake Wars
i sure hope that your child enjoyed our Cupcake Wars. Each group of students were tasked with opening up their own Cupcake business. They had to find a signature cupcake recipe, name their business, determine how much to charge for their cupcake in which to make a profit, create a print advertisement and a presentation for their classmates. Their peers scored each presentation to determine the winner of Cupcake Wars. They did an outstanding job!
Enjoy your Summer!
Summer Practice!
Perhaps you can take the summer off as well! Ask your child to do their laundry, mend their clothes and maybe even plan and cook a meal for the family!
