Quilting!

Our cadets designed a class quilt as they learned more about each other. Each square represents each cadet in the following categories: What would you do if you were guaranteed success? - What are two things that you are very good at? - Who is your hero/heroine? - What is one thing you would like to change about yourself? - and - What is something you believe in so strongly that no one could move you?

2007-2008 Teacher Cadets hard at work

The new year began with a creative touch as this year's Teacher Cadets create scrapbooks entitled "All About Me." This scrapbook will chronicle their successes, achievements, values, learning styles and childhood memories as they work through the first semester.
