One
of my favorite things about ILP has been that you work so closely with
your classmates and all become good friends! At the end of the program,
you will already know so many people in your area with the same
profession and can make some great connections. Pretty awesome! :)
While
at the Discovery Center, I was quickly reminded how beneficial hands-on
activities can be. It is a great way for kids to get their energy out
while enhancing their learning. Our group work during our nature walk
reminded me of my sixth grade leaf project. Every year, parents would
dread this project because it involved so much of the parents' time. We
completed a huge binder with just about every type of leaf imaginable,
all in page protector sheets and glued and labeled perfectly. This quick
activity showed me that if this project was done in class, each student
could have been assigned a different leaf to find and show the class
and the same outcome could probably have been achieved. It's all about
working together and making it fun!
