final lesson 6th










As a believer in DIY culture and customizing clothing I felt it was important that bring that belief into my classroom of 6th grade uniform wearing students. Going to a uniform school sometimes feels like the end of the world. Middle school is a time where students are experiencing many changes and developing their identities. When I asked some of the students if they had ever altered their clothes, many said they have never thought about it/ tried. We spent one day working subtractively, and one day working additively. The students worked in groups to make the lesson less expensive and to teach how to work collaboratively.
