Week #3

Hello everybody!

There's not much of an update at this point. I took off Friday and Monday for Memorial Day weekend, so it was nice to go fishing with my family and such. But, the most exciting news of all is that Ashleigh is back in the United States! It is kind of nice to have someone working in the office on a different guide so I'm not having to talk to myself--not that I'm admitting to that happening.

But, pretty much I finished my K-1 Guide for Megalodon, and my supervisor Dr. Ellis has started to comment and review on it, so I'm just making corrections and starting my 2-3 guide. Ashleigh and I are going to Stephen Foster Elementary this Thursday to teach some of the 3rd and 4th graders about the Fossil Exhibit (we gave them a Pre-Visit and guided them through the museum a few weeks ago). It should be interesting, because their classes were a little rowdy when we did the pre-visit, but they seemed okay enough at the museum, so I'll be sure to give an update then!

Hope everyone else has a great week!

  1. I can relate to the having someone to talk to issue.The people at my internship are the most talkative at time but I try and stay busy to pass time. So how long does it normally take to make a guide for an exhibit? hopefully it gets approved and is this guide related to your math in the museum project? Have fun at the elementary school.

  2. That is awesome that you are going to the elementary school to teach about the fossil exhibit. For elementary students, I feel like these activities in which there is a pre-visit, field trip, and post lesson are great because it begins to get them to develop their skills in using previous knowledge and applying it to new material. Hopefully they are well behaved! Either way I am sure it will be a good time.
