Week 2: January 26-30, 2009

This week was the first week we got a feel of what a regular school schedule was like. We had our first test on geography and oceanography! I'm hoping we all did good at remembering the names of islands and the different fault types. Vincent also came in to lead the communications class.This time we did a walking activity that helped me think about a lot and get to know more about my classmates.First the classroom was labled true and false on each side and the middle of the room was considerd sometimes. Then vincent would read out facts that may describe some people and we would silently walk to the part of the room that was our answer to what he read out. If the statement was true about us! thats the part of the room we would go. Once we got there we took turns to tell why we went to that part of the room. This activity let me know what type of a person they were and how much i have in common with them.

The highlight of this week would definitely have be the crazy ropes course that we did Tuesday. First we all met at Fort Mileys ropes course in the morning and did some fun partner stretching and trust exorcises. Then we were put to the test to see if we could work together and complete there challenge in 20 minutes! After we did that we got to what I thought was the fun nest stuff. one at a time we all got almost 30 feet in the air to walk across a single wire! It was great to see everyone go through with it and to see everyone cheering each other on! That day everyone connected and enjoyed themselves. this brought us a whole lot closer and I couldn't believe this was just the second week.
