Exeter-Milligan Update: Espanol Notes




Espanol Notes by Elizabeth Rios, Exeter-Milligan Spanish Instructor

In our Spanish II class, we do presentations to the class in both English and Spanish at the end of every month. When we explain our presentations following some steps: First, we show a Spanish word and the class say the meaning of what it is in English. Then, the presenter reads a sentence using the word in Spanish, the translation of the Spanish sentence, and the definition of the word. Right now in Spanish II we are learning how to invite people to places. We are also learning how to accept and reject the invitations. Another thing we are learning the rules to use the verb To Be in Spanish.

Exeter-Milligan Update: FCCLA Update







FCCLA Update
by Mary Lou Vossler, Exeter-Milligan FCS Teacher

Central Community College in Hastings provided the setting for the Family, Career and Community Leaders of America District 4 Conference. Thirty-one members of the Exeter-Milligan FCCLA Chapter and their advisor, Mary Lou Vossler, attended the Conference on October 2, 2012.  The theme of the conference was “Ignite the Spark with FCCLA”.  Students from Exeter-Milligan, Thayer Central, Fillmore Central, Doniphan-Trumbull, York, Sutton, Cross County and Bruning-Davenport attended the event.  The opening general session featured Keynote Speaker, Mike Smith, from Lincoln, NE.  Mike’s message of “Finding Your Calvin” had an anti-bullying message and had a profound impact on the FCCLA members.  Mike has founded and continues to direct two nationally recognized non-profit organizations called “The Bay” and “Skate For Change.”  His talk was truly amazing!  One of his main messages was “DUDE BE NICE”.  
Members attended teen issue sessions entitled: Women’s Prison Inmates, More with Mike Smith, Ignite Your Passion by “Teal Boutique” in Hastings, Fat to Freedom by Sara Theesen and ZUMBA with Shannon Stone of Sutton. The afternoon sessions were FCCLA Leadership sessions entitled:  PEER Education, What Not to Wear, Start the Fireworks! Chapter Shout Out I & II, and “Ignite the Spark with Community Service Ideas”.  Haylee Sheffield served as the district officer for the Exeter-Milligan FCCLA chapter.  District officers help plan, contact potential speakers, and set up the conference for the district.
