St. Patrick’s Day Paintings
Students had to work in groups of two to create a monochromatic painting using the shamrock and Celtic cross shapes and a variety of green paints (some they used straight out of the bottle and others they mixed themselves). We have some amazing artists at Evangel!

The Lady Eagles entered this tournament with high expectations and would settle for nothing but the best. In a series of short scrimmages the Eagles came out first in their pool.

How did you get to New York?
Our Korean International students had a project this month where they had to interview a non-native New Yorker and write about his/her journey to NYC. They had questions prepared beforehand and this was an opportunity for them to practice their speaking and listening fluency. Many of them chose to interview their teachers and although they were nervous at first, they expressed how much fun they had with the project. One student came back saying that she ended up not only interviewing the teacher but being asked back the same questions about her journey to NYC from Korea. She said it was an exciting experience sharing her life story in English. I am planning on more projects to give them an opportunity to practice speaking with their English-speaking peers.

Do Assembly Lines Rerally Work?
Students were introduced to economics with a series of pictures that showed outlandish scenes: a booth at a beach with a sign saying “Sunset viewing- $10”, a shack amidst mansions, a small, local delivery company promising to deliver a package anywhere in the country within the day. All of these pictures demonstrated a certain economic principle that the students had to figure out. Since that introduction, we have made our own budgets, tested the efficieny of assembly lines by planning and implementing our own assembly line to make bookmarks, and have studied figures from Adam Smith to Henry Ford.

Read What ECS Students Think About…
Students worked on writing their own opinion editorials to submit to local newspapers, magazines, and websites. Students chose a public policy issue that they were passionate about, spent the semester researching it, and then wrote a 750 word essay explaining what the government should (or shouldn’t) do to alleviate a specific social problem. Project topics varied among students but included abortion, MTA fares, animal rights, gay marriage, adoption, child abuse, and school charters.

Progressive Reformers
In order to learn about the Progressive Movement, we took advantage of the history of the city in which we live. Many of the Progressive Reformers were from New York, including Jacob Riis and Teddy Roosevelt. We looked at pictures and video clips–from the PBS Series, New York–of the city’s conditions in the 1800s and learned about movements to reform the tenements, sweatshops, and education system. Students also worked on an immigration project, in which they interviewed a modern day immigrant and then presented their story to the class, comparing modern day immigration to the groups that came through Ellis Island at the turn of the century.
