Curriculum, Confusion and Clarification!

Engineering with the campers!

Today at Cra – Z – Brain was much more chill than the first two days. I am getting very used to the campers, as well as the day to day running of the business. I spent the early morning creating curriculum for the class I plan on teaching next Wednesday. I ran the lab I plan on doing past Mr. Rothrock, and we acted out a majority of the lab to make sure that it would in fact go as planned. After that, I calculated the cost of materials for the lab, which is another important factor that I am not used to adding into the whole “education” factor. After running through the lab, I sat and talked with the two part time employees to discuss exactly what day to day things an intern might not pick up on. Their insight was very useful to hear, especially on an educational standpoint. I discussed some of my concerns about running a business and or educating to them, and they were able to talk through some of my confusion and help clarify some details about what it means to work for a small local business. In the afternoon, I facilitated the drill station to maintain order as the kids worked on engineering projects! I look forward to tomorrow’s full day of education and activities!
