Electives a success by Andrea Henry and Michelle Nesbit Thursday, March 2 was the last session of electives for Blyth Public School. In drama elective, led by Mrs. Hulley, students created puppets. In the cooking elective, they them selves made snacks that most children can make at home such as pizza, granola cookies, etc. This group was led by Mrs. Cronin and Mrs. Walsh. Advanced Art, led by Mrs. Bev Walker, made printings, cardboard plates and rubbings of leaves and coins. The French Club elective, in structed by Mr. Hooftman, enjoyed learning how to sing French songs, to dance “Sur Le Pont d’Avignon” and to play the games French children would play. In the games elective, led by Mrs. Charter, they learned to play games that were new to them. In the knitting elective, some students made granny squares and neck warmers. This was taught by Mrs. Kolkman and Mrs. Webster. They also spent some sessions on embroidery and crochet. In outdoor activities, a very popular elective, students played games such as “Quick Frozen Critters.” The weather was very unco-operative, but they did have one session of sledding and another of skiing and snowshoeing. This energetic group was led by Mrs. Little and Mrs. Battye. The Arena games elective, led bv Mr. Livermore combined skating with games such as broomball, hockey and ringette. The ukulele group, instructed by learned how to play, “He’s Got the Whole World in His Hands” and several other songs. We hope to hear from this group at an assembly. In Calligraphy led by Mrs. Roberts the group practised that age old art seldom seen today. They made booklets of alphabet letters. Everyone was sad that the elective came to an end. We all hope it will be back again next year.
