4/30 Day of Learning

Today was the day of learning! I think that my workshop went really well although, it started off a little rocky because I forgot some information that I was going to present. The 5th and 6th graders seemed like they had fun, and were very creative with the project. Cole, one of the 6th grader in the group, came up with the idea of using a sun dial, instead of a clock that ran on batteries, which I thought was very creative. I wouldn’t have thought of that at all. I think that it was a good idea that I made a model of a green room, because a few of the 5th graders didn’t really know what a green room or sustainable room was until today. So that was very helpful, and got them working right away and coming up with great ideas. My groups members and I were prepared, and I think that everyone felt pretty confident. Everything went well, and I hope that the 5th and 6th graders in the group think so as well! Overall, I enjoyed today, and hope that the 5th and 6th graders will remember this day, and the ideas that they came up with to carry on for the rest of their lives.
