What happens when a button pops off? Do you throw away the garment? Perhaps use a safety pin? Take the garment to a tailor? Call grandma? Learn to sew on a missing button! Sewing is a basic skill that develops confidence, and builds independence. Developing basic sewing skills is also helpful to the environment, so don't throw away that garment with the missing button; sew the button back on the shirt or skirt or pants! The art of hand-sewing is not only useful, it's fun! And sewing develops fine motor skills, too. Students will learn how to thread a needle and sew a shank button and a flat button on a garment. Once learned, students can practice the skill by making a button bracelet.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello! For many years I've taught math, literature and writing to 5th & 6th grade students in an independent co-educational school. Reading and math are the foundation for success in all other school subjects. Effective instruction engages the learner in thinking and dialogue, sparking a desire to learn more, and all members of a class learn from each other. I love to read, recommend books to students, and get recommendations of good books from students. My husband and I enjoy biking the rails-to-trails near our home in a Pittsburgh suburb.
