Welcome
This blog is designed to provide information, inspiration, and to showcase student projects. I am a Family and Consumer Sciences Teacher (FCS Teacher)and I teach four different levels of sewing at the secondary level. Teen Living, is a course designed for 9th and 10th grade students. It is similar to what used to be referred to as "Home Economics" class. It encompasses six different units, one of which is beginning sewing. Apparel I is also a beginning level sewing course. It is a step up from Teen Living. Apparel II is a course where students learn advanced sewing skills, textiles and design applications, as well as career opportunities. The course also has a component where we develop a "live" project. Basically, I teach the students how to start a small business with their sewing skills. Finally, the Clothing, Construction and Design Advanced Studies course is an advanced independent sewing course. I hope you enjoy visiting this blog to see what we are up to next. Happy Sewing!
