Week 3 Post
This week in my placement, we were not in the classroom but on a field trip to Waldumar, which is an outdoor education center. It is focused on science and map skills. This was my second time this semester spending such a lovely day there. The first time I went, I was so bored out of my mind that I was counting down the seconds until I was allowed to leave the freezing cold barn that has not yet been introduced to a heating system. Today, I was in charge of leading a group of students out into the woods with a gps system that I had no idea how to use and did not end up working! It was a frustrating day, especially because I could witness the students learning language arts.

How did the management aspects of the field trip go? I have seen some go very smooth and others become a nightmare. Did the students have t do any write up about what they saw or did? I imagine there are a lot of opportunities to view some aspects of writing during science. Would you believe that my class has not had a science lesson while I have been there!
