The second session of the after school program went quite well, with the Casey students showing a great amount of interest in the designer's presentation and in the following design project. The ice-breaker of two truths and a lie seemed to draw most of the students attention towards the larger group and provided a way for us to get to know a bit more about each other. A few of the student’s attention were lost afterwards due to the delay before the architect's presentation, but that should be expected with sixth grade students. The plans provided by the architect of the future Casey school greatly interested the students, initiating many questions and concerns about the new design and what specific elements will be included. The 3-D model of the design of the school also generated questions from the students, particularly about the gym, the outdoor lunch area, the cafeteria, and especially about the addition of an elevator. The architect could have answered the students in greater detail with more interest, but he did provide the students with a better idea of how the new school will turn out. Overall, the day was a success and I hope the students will bring the same amount of interest, concern and new ideas to each session.
