the day of learning is finito 4/30/08
what: 8th grade day of learning
where: LREI
When: April 30, 2008
Yesterday was reeeaaaallly tiresome. But it surprisingly went well. at first i was really nervous about the whole ‘teaching little children’ thing, but it wasn’t so bad……that is….until Henry, Aliza and I brought out the candy. That’s one thing that we learned that day, other than all those cool facts about sustainability, that you should NEVER take out 6 bags of open candy in front of 13 kids consisting of 5th and 6th graders. Our first workshop didn’t go very well. It was just really awkward and we weren’t that prepared for them. The second workshop however, went perfectly well. We were a lot more prepared for what was coming to us then we were the first time around. We collected a lot more materials by the second workshop time and we actually knew what to say and how to be more understandable. So it basically went pretty well if you count out the candy fiasco.
P.s- No matter what people say. I never want to teach ^-^”
P.s.s- I’m not saying it’s a bad job or anything. It’s just that I’m not that patient with kids.
