| The 8th grade pod wearing their tie-dyed shirts. | 997.2 KB |
Mr. Greg Shields, Mrs. Elizabeth Bass and Mrs. Lise Carpenter, the teachers of the eighth grade pod decided to do a pod activity with their second, third and fourth period classes. They decided that they would do a tie-dying activity because of the book they read in Mrs. Bass’s classes called “Schooled.” "Schooled" is about a teenage hippy that has lived with his hippy grandma his whole life. But when his grandma gets injured he gets his first taste of the real-world and gets elected as Claverage Middle School's eight-grade president. Along with making tie-dyed shirts, Mrs. Carpenter made some home made root beer with dry ice which had to do with what her classes where learning at the time.
But the activity wasn’t just tie-dying and root beer, students also brought ch
ips, brownies, cookies candy, and more. Students played games as they tie-dyed their Shirts. When the time was over all the students had their bag with there tie-dyed shirt in it and instructions about how to wash it at home.
On Friday, October 14th the students where asked to wear their shirts to school so they could take a group picture. According to students in the eighth grade pod, some of the shirts came out great others not so much, but the students had fun during the eighth grade pod activity one way or another.
