Workshop Day Two

It’s always interesting to see what someone thought of you after a first meeting. For example, if they remember your name, or if they were excited to see you, well this is how I felt upon arriving at Casey for our second meeting. It was good to see all the students I had work with the first day and they were excited to see their picture and to hangout again. We all sat down and I handed out their pictures so we could discuss why they had taken them. Then we put them into categories and glued them to a big sheet of paper. The students then added their remarks to whether they liked, disliked, or wanted to bring to Platte. This went pretty well for both groups and was a good transition for the kids to start thinking about the Platte site which was the next activity. This also went well and the students had some pretty good ideas about where to place the portables and walkways at Platte. The one interesting thing about our second meeting was that one period was 50 minutes and the other was 80 minutes which made a huge difference. The shorter period was just right and we were even a little rushed for time but having too much time most of the kids lost their attention and want us to entertain them. Overall the second meeting when well.
