Once again B8 was on the move. We try to go on out based learning adventures at least once a month. This month the class has been talking a lot about foods and menu planning for a holiday feast. With all of the planning there has been a lot done in the area of reviewing functional words in the category of grocery. Since the class has been working very hard at reading numerous grocery words as well as the prices of several items, we decided to go Krogering! On Thursday we took our outbased learning to the Kroger in Southaven. The students took turns reading the aisle markers and locating various food items on the individual lists that they had with them. We did comparison shopping as we discussed the prices of various brands of bread, eggs, and milk. At the end of our shopping experience each class member had the chance to use the u-scan and locate bar codes to check out their selected items. Everyone was so pleased with their ability to check out the groceries. After the shopping trip and all of the reading of food items everyone was hungry so it was a good thing that we had planned to eat lunch at CiCi Pizza. As a group we discussed what a buffet is and the manners to be used when taking items from a buffet. The students were excellent and followed directions very well while we were on this outing. During art this week the class cut out letters from the newspaper to construct their food word turkeys. The class is doing a great job at reading food words. In life skills we continue to work on table washing, vacuuming, and sweeping.
This week we also held the installation of our new Jr. Civitan members.I have uploaded the pictures from the installation for all to enjoy. We are so thankful to have such a fine group of students to support the activities that we do in the Community Based Class.
Remember: There will be a Hope Dance held for the Community based classes at OBHS, OBMS, Lewisburg, and CenterHill on December 4th. The invitations to this dance will be sent out this week by the members of the Interact Club.
