Transitions Clothing

 

The saying "old things become new again" is very true here at IHS Transition II Class.
 This week our Transition II students began work on making clothing and other other items from scrap material and old t-shirts by cutting and sewing the materials together.
Our "Pinterest" fans found a couple of paterns online to help in their quest in making great scarves and purses. The project allowed our students to learn and use many different skills. First, we learned the basics of cutting and measuring thru the help of a pattern. Then we learned the difference in making an item we like versus buying it at the store. It provide them with confidence and enjoyment by making the items. They all turned out really great. An awesome job by our IHS Transition II students.



Here's Nila showing off her infinity scraf that she made from old IHS t-shirts.

"Biggest Loser" Competiton

The first two months of 2014 is a time when many have new years resolutions. For many it usually involves exercising more and losing weight. So, sure enough there was a competition put together from the IHS nurses for all IHS Staff that were interested in a weight loss competition, a "Biggest Loser" style competition. It was for a two month period. All four of your IHS Transition II staff participated in the competition along with several more IHS staff members.
The competition was based upon most percentage lost from their original weigh-in weight for the two month period. For most it was more about achieving goals and getting healthier then the competition itself. However, Mrs. Huffmaster and Coach Gates were tied throughout most of the competition. Each within just a percentage points of each other. Whether it was running in the cold crazy winter weather or heading to the local rec center for cardio and weight lifting work and entering calorie count on their smart phone apps all participants were able to choose their own method to losing the weight and get healthier.
Finally, On March 13, the competition came to a close. When the final totals were tallied the top three winners came from the IHS Transition staff. First Place was Mrs. Huffmaster with 9% loss, Second place was Coach Gates with 7% loss, and Third Place was Mrs. Newcome with 6% loss (We purposely left off the pounds each person lost -Coach Gates 19.8#). All three lost a total of 46 lbs during this time frame. A great job from all that participated in the IHS "Biggest Loser" competition.
Yes, there will be another competition to start after spring break. Here's to more weight loss for all of Independence High School staff.

Campus Service Projects and other fun stuff we do

The Independence Transition II students perform many tasks throughout the community. However, we do many tasks here on campus as well.  One of those tasks is working in the cafeteria cleaning the tables and windows. The students really enjoy and have fun making sure our cafeteria looks great! They wipe down the tables and they clean the windows in the cafeteria and many other doors throughout the school.



When we do have a little bit of down time our students enjoy board games and jig saw puzzles! Yes, we have completed many jig saw puzzles this year. Nalani really enjoyed the dog puzzle. This puzzle took the students just a couple of days to complete. They did a fantastic job.

 
 
 One other game the students enjoy to play is checkers. Ashley and Nila had a great time in a "Championship" match in which Nila won. IHS Transition II really has a great time on campus, in the community and in the classroom. Go Eagles!
