November 8-12

Cosmetology I: Chemical Texturing
  • Working on mock chemical relaxers and curly perms
  • Data Team Report:  Pre to Post Common assessment results, the percent of students who scored 80 or higher on the pre-common assessment covering the Anatomy and Physiology unit was 2%.  After completing the unit 67% scored 80% or higher. That is a 65% gain!
Cosmetology II (1st and 2nd blocks): Continuing with Hair Styling Unit:
Advanced Cosmetology (3rd block): Continuing with Advanced Styling and Shaping principles unit:

  • One of the jobs that can be obtained by a cosmetologist is working with run way shows, hair shows, etc. We are working on plans for our hairshow. Various activities will be going on:
1. hairstyles
2. make-up
3. nails
4. dance
5. written plans
Practice hair styles, make-up, nails, dance, for hair show, write down likes and dislike about the hair styles created for future reference *keep a written plan of hair show ideas
Principles of Hair Design: proportion, balance, rhythm, emphasis, harmony

  • Data Team Report: Pre to Post Common assessment results, the percent of students who scored 80 or higher on the pre-common assessment covering the Hair Styling unit was 2%. After completing the unit 16% scored 80% or higher. That is a 14% gain!  Not good, we can do better, we have to do better.  Problem, we spent too much time performing versus written/note-taking.
