Here are some updates for my classes:

PAA 8 - We started the quickbread unit just this week. Students made some delicious cheese biscuits, cinnamon rolls, and banana chocolate chip cookies. They all have the recipes to take home and try out over Christmas.

PAA 9 - Students are still working on their hand sewing and some have started their design project.

HLTH 9 - We have finished up the addictions unit and are ready for the next unit after the new year.

Happy Holidays!!!!
