Show THE GREEN SHEET 12 Thursday, December 20, 1984 Kids Brighten Season Santa's Young Helpers Gain Experience structed the products that were to be sold in the Christmas store. There were hundreds of items made by the students. As the items were brought in, the quality control team took over. It was their responsibility to check each item for perfection. Prices and labels were affixed to each item before they were shelved. The students decided to hold a sneak preview sale for all sixth graders and their parents as a trial run. All clerks and cashiers were thoroughly schooled in their tasks before they took over their jobs in the store. During the time the store was open students had a first-han- d opportunity to see how the law of supply and demand works. There were many "hot" items which sold like Cabbage Patch dolls. Some of them were furry mouse by Sherma Yeates Sandy. At this time of year we usually think of Santa's workshop as the busiest place. But the sixth grade students at Quail Hollow elementary have also been working at a lively pace. They set up and operated a Christmas store for their parents and fellow students at Quail Hollow as the culmination of a month-lon- g study on economics and free enterprise. First, the students experienced producing - coming up with a marketable idea for a product, making a sample and deciding on a unit price per item. They took the sample to the production managers (other students) who decided on a price that was agreeable to both the producer and the store. Contracts stating the price and number of items the store would finger puppets, stationery buy from the individual producers (Christmas and regular), teddy were written. doll furbears made from pom-ponAt this point in the project, niture, and chocolate, cherry, lime and orange suckers. everyone went home and con s, Students from Welby elementary crowd in close as teachers and parent volunteers assist them in decorating Christmas tree now on display in the lobby of the Holy Valley Hospital.

The children were asked to donate something they themselves would like to receive on Christmas. The response from the students has been great, said Jim Birrell a teacher at Oquirrh, who is the project. In conjunction with the spirit of giving the students also put on a short play about the act of unselfish giving. Tonight (Thursday) at 7 the third graders will present the 1984 Christmas play entitled "The Feelings of Christmas." During one part of the program the students will pass out loaves of nut bread to the adults in the audience. "We want the children to feel the spirit of Christmas in their hearts," a school spokesman said. There will also be a short play about Scrooge and his attitude about Christmas. The children encourage him to feel the true spirit of Christmas in his heart. In between program practices the children have been making a form of Indian art called "a gods eye" using sticks and yarn they are creating Christmas gifts. The first graders have also been learning about Christmas. They have been studying the different customs from other countries, including Mexico, Holland, Sweden, and Africa. They have also been learning about Hanakkuh. The children will be making Dutch cookies and hot chocolate and will compile a book on Christmas customs from around the world. bah-humb- O 'Vv , IPS ut r..7 lumuisen.
