My placement site is at Lowrey Middle School, in Ms Taylor's 6th and 7th-grade life management class. Lowrey School is located at 6601 Jonathan, Dearborn, Mi 48126. This class is mostly a hands-on learning experience for students about some of the tasks they will need and use in the future. The classroom is a combination kitchen and sewing room. The kitchens have most of the equipment a real kitchen at home would have. The sewing room has real sewing machines for all students to sew projects. The teacher's desk is located in the centre between the two, and it is where all of the demonstrations are shown. The classroom gives the students a sense of realism but maintains a learning atmosphere.
In the time I am helping Ms.Taylor; I assist her with two classes, a 6th-grade class and a more advanced seventh-grade class. In each category, there's an average of twenty-four students; surprisingly, there is a vast number of boys in the two classrooms. In the sixth grade class, they learn about such things as sewing by hand, cooking some basic foods, and most importantly, teamwork. In the seventh grade class, students have harder projects, such as sewing on the machine and cooking more difficult foods. In both categories though, teamwork and responsibility are essential to success. By working together, and sharing ideas with the group activities, while each student is assigned a task, they learn to trust and teamwork. There are two types of students, productive and non-productive. Productive students do what is required, and non-productive are usually disruptive and non-cooperative. Most of the students are productive, non-productive students are disciplined for their actions.
My duties are to assist Ms Taylor by helping her carry out demonstrations, making sure students follow the rules and helping out when students are having a difficult time. In the seventh grade cl.
