BRADENTON — Sugg Middle School held a “Support Nepal” day recently to educate students about the tragic series of earthquakes and to initiate a fundraising effort to help provide relief. Teachers Rachel Kutz and Dana Mills worked with Principal Darlene Proue to organize the day in which all teachers taught the same lesson plans.
The first two periods of the day focused on the country of Nepal. The next two periods focused on plate tectonics and earthquakes; the fifth period examined media coverage; sixth period was devoted to students writing as if they were a victim of the earthquake and seventh period involved the concept of global outreach.
Three big jugs have been place in the school’s cafeteria, one for each grade, to collect loose change. The grades will compete to see who can fill their jug the fullest. The money raised will be donated to relief efforts in Nepal through Shelterbox.
