Most Fridays I look forward to the weekend and cannot believe that another week has gone by. This Friday is a little different. The class that I am currently student teaching in has been at Woldumar Nature Center all week as part of a Big Nature Lesson. We have done a ton of great hands on learning while on our field trip. The students have learned all about plants, birds, the water-cycle, making observations, and much more. For the most part the weather has been great, and watching these children spend 90% of their day outside has been rewarding as well as entertaining. Tomorrow is our last day on our field trip and it is also my last day student teaching at Schavey Road Elementary School in DeWitt, Michigan. These past six weeks have been a blur with observations, preparing my unit, creating my folio, and school events -but they have been amazing and so much fun! I wish I could spend another six weeks there, however I know that I have another adventure to look forward to.
Next Wednesday I will be driving to the Detroit Airport, flying to Atlanta, Georgia, and then to Johannesburg, South Africa, then to Port Elizabeth, South Africa, AND THEN taking a shuttle to Grahamstown, South Africa where I will be completing the rest of my student teaching at Kingswood College! I am very fortunate to be traveling with two other future teachers, which will make the trip "fly" by:)
