Bloomburg ISD is bringing back Home Economics

Mrs. Shannon Peacock has taken on the task of teaching Bloomburg’s talented students the world of hospitality. Last week she worked with the students on basic baking skills which included measuring ingredients, understanding cooking directions and using utensils. “Everything in the classroom is new and I have a Hospitality 1 and 2 class,” Peacock said. “We are bringing Home Ec. back. We are learning safety, how to cook, and all aspects of the hospitality world.” Pictured: Ashlyn Cox and Cassie, Jacee and Kaleigh Glasgow learn the basics of Home Economics which Bloomburg ISD revived this year. Using the knowledge taught to them, the ladies made pies.

Mrs. McLean’s seventh graders are learning about cells and their organelles. They are calculating the area of each organelle in plant and animal cells, comparing cell organelles to different city structures in real life, and creating their own plant and animal cells out of various materials.
