Humanities Class Projects

By Kaylee Schier

Fox now has a Humanities Class!!!

With all the new additions to Fox High School they are having to offer new and different classes, with one of them being a Humanities class. Their are 14 students that enrolled to take the class and Mrs. Kinsey is teaching the class.

They are creating hands on activities for students ages 3-6 years old, based on Maria Montessori's System of Learning. They recently learned that she was an Italian physician, educator, philosopher, humanitarian and devout Catholic. She discovered that a child's brain learned better when they were given something they could touch. The humanities students studied about her and wanted to create something that would follow her footsteps.

Not long after this, they started working on different activities. Mrs. Kinsey divided the class in 5 groups. One group, Ameriah Williams, Catie Spigner and Keyanndra Young, made a dice game. The two dice, one with colors and one with shapes, after students rolled they had to find a shape or color in the room that matched.

Cheyenne Hoggard and Connor Jack made a sand pan activity where students looked at a card which had letters on it and drew it with their finger in the sand then shook the pan where it would erase so they could start over. Alaura Billings and Sarah Galbraith created flash cards with different pictures and words on the cards.

Justin Cornelius, Chris Spigner, and Dillon Langley made a game called DOTS. They created large colored circles and wrote the name of the color on each circle. And they made a spinner with all the colors of the circles. One student spins the spinner and others try to find the dot in the classroom. Sammy Jackson, Jenniffer Wood, Jeniffer Lanham, and Brianna Lovely made a shake box with sponges that are cut into the shape and coordinate with the shapes that are cut into the box.

Their next event the humanities class is working on is a calendar art contest for the Victims Impact Panel in the middle of November. The class is starting to brainstorm ideas but have not really started working on it. Congratulations to the Fox Humanities Class!!! Keep up the good work!!!
