Fiber Arts
6th–8th
Mrs. Palmieri
2:00pm–4:00pm
Students will learn the artistic uses of fiber, yarn, and fabric to create traditional and non-traditional pieces of clothing and art. During each class, the students will learn sewing, knitting, weaving, crocheting, or fiber-painting skills, which will be used to create usable, wearable and/or displayable art. Each student will learn how to use a sewing machine. This class is very hands-on and a great way for students of all genders to become more creative, especially with upcycling and repurposing, and to understand more about how things around them are constructed. They will also learn the difference between woven and knit fabrics, and what animals or plants various fibers are made from, and why they are used differently.
Italiano con Sery Poppins
6th–8th
Sery Poppins
2:00pm–4:00pm
From the instructor: “Buongiorno! I am Sery Poppins and I just arrived at LILA. Like my cousin Mary, I always travel with a suitcase and an umbrella. What’s in my suitcase? All you need to learn the basics of Italian, of course! But rest assured: I don’t travel with worksheets or boring textbooks but with a lot of games and fun activities that we’ll play each week! The magic is that when you play, you don’t even realize that you’re learning.”
