Lucy-TEACH IN REFLECTION-4/30/09

The Teach-In was an amazing success. I loved doing this project and I am so glad it all paid off in the end. I thought the day went so good. The first session was not as good as the second one because I grew more and more idea’s as the first session was going on. The information part went great because I made comparisons so the children could understand the numbers and the size of what we could save. I also thought it was awesome how the kids loved the activity. They all made really cool bottles and also were using recycled materials.  From the videos that we saw I learned so much stuff. From FLOW I learned how bottled water was the same as tap water and how much money is spent on it every year. It was ridiculous to see how much money is spent on that much stuff. I also learned some things from the video’s our classmates made. Nothing truly factual but I learned about the other organizations my fellow student’s worked on and got to see what they wanted to explore in the world of sustainability. At the end of the day, I enjoyed working at the park. It wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be. In a way, it was sort of amusing and enjoyable. I really enjoyed the entire day and I am so glad to see it all was a success.
