Knitting at Roberts High School (by J. Garcia-Pallares)

Last year, Jose and other students knitted and donated over 200 hats to children cancer wards in Oregon and California.


Some things that we have in Roberts high school is that some kids can knit. These students can also make up their community hours also by knitting. In the knitting cluster, you can make hats and scarves for yourself or for people in foundations that may need fuzzy, warm hats. Some teachers can also help you try to knit knew projects. 

When I knitted, I thought it was fun because I got to focus on the project. Once I started getting the hang of it, I just kept doing it. I felt great about myself that something that I was making was what someone needed, and that someone was helped by what I made.

We're in the process of updating and fixing some of the issues with the blog! The students have done a great job of analyzing how things are looking, and now we're getting to work fixing and changing. For example, the video on What we're reading is now fixed! Check it out!

Wordle!

We're a bit obsessed with Wordle these days. Make your own! www.wordle.net We recommend using Internet Explorer over Mozilla Firefox. 

It's always fun to learn new things. . .

Like blogging! We appreciate everyone's patience as we figure out the best ways to conquer the world of blogging. I think we have it figured out for now, and hopefully there won't be many more drastic changes! We've revamped the pages into actual blogs so that we can post more easily and the older posts will still be accessible.

Thanks for hanging in there with us and we all learn a new skill!!

Always fun times at RHS. . .

You can say a lot of things about Roberts, but unsecured isn't one of them. Today, the Publications class was enjoying its time so much that we didn't want to leave. Then we couldn't leave. Until the cavalry arrived--fork and knife in hand--to rescue us from missing out on lunch. Whew! Thanks to all the helpers. . .no matter how crazy your ideas to release us!
