| South View Middle School will host our Curriculum Night on Thursday, January 16th from 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM. It's based on an episode of The Cosby Show. |
Who would have imagined that
The Cosby Show would be the inspiration for a middle school Curriculum Night?
I was recently watching an intriguing episode of the show entitled Theo's
Holiday. In the episode, the Huxtables turn their brownstone into the real
world in order to teach Theo about responsibility, money management, and a host
of other skills. He had to rent an apartment, buy furniture, and pay for
food.
After finishing the show, I
was stimulated to turn the situation into a brilliant concept for a Curriculum Night. We
could transform South View Middle School into South View Town Square in order to
show our students how the curriculum truly connected to real ife.
Here is a brief description
of what we have planned for Thursday, January 16th from 5:00 PM - 7:00
PM.
- South View Middle School will be morphed
into South View, NC. The students will investigate the curriculum
through rigorous real world scenarios with visits to South View Public
Library, South View University, South View Health & Fitness, South
View Credit Union, South View Acting Studio, South View Travel Agency,
South View Snack Hut, and so much more!
I cannot wait to see how everything turns out! It's going
to be so much fun! I'll keep you posted.
