Okay, classroom. Well today I really have no notes to write home about. We kind of got into a Groove. Now with the students they seem pretty mellow eager to learn. I think maybe for the subject today they might have been pretty knowledgeable when it so maybe they were like kind of bored. But I honestly, I think only one or two is board versus the other ones that were kind of interested in learning about camouflage and animals, but there were some fun facts, they didn't know. So at least we were able to learn about those. Those, and we were able to Guess the Animal today, which was really cool of the second time that's happened. Overall, I think it was successful. Everyone was respectful and paying attention. So yeah, all good, all around.

All right, class went really well. Today, we showed up an hour earlier had a guest speaker. So, we got our guests past and we got everything figured out on the online site. So class went really well for some reason today, they were all listening very well. We learned about stem. Its applications, we got an engineer in and we just played a little game with it all. And after when I asked what they learned, they all had answers. So pretty good. All right.

Okay class went pretty well today, while they were a little bit hyper, it was kind of difficult to get anything really done today because of their constant like calling out. So I ended up putting something on the board like I wrote a word monkey and then every time we got crazy I put their name down but otherwise pretty good.

We learned about Aves the species and the physics of birds

Okay, I thought class went really well today. I think all of the kids were pretty engaged in the activities, specifically the activity portion of my class, we did like a 10-minute, draw the animal and have it be revealed to everyone. I thought that that was really engaging for us all, still trying to get everyone to follow the rules such as like, having your butts in seats and all the four legs of the chair on the ground. But we're getting better and better with each class. So I'm thinking positive or on the up. Up up up Trend upward, trend of how things are going. So, yeah, I think that this cost was very well done, just because everyone was excited. We talked about Halloween and costumes, everyone was going to be, and we were able to get class done in time. I did have to cut out an informational video that I was going to also do for a marine life, but it was okay because we were still able to review everything we learned in. Everyone had an answer, but one of us, which is good statistics for this class so pretty good.

I thought I had enough time today to get to class and find parking!

Okay, today was pretty good, much better than last classes because I was able to kind of be there in time to set up my presentation and everything. However, I said somewhat prepared because I wasn't 100% today, as well. I had the gal come in and sit and view the class with me, I don't know what you guys call them. Um, but yeah, she was very sweet. I got her contact. So I wish I could have gotten there earlier knowing that I learned. Day of that she was going to be there, so I wish I could have gotten a little bit sooner just to introduce myself a little bit without being. So rushed also I was not as early as I would have liked to been again today because the address still isn't loading on my email that I got from you guys. It still says the wrong address. So I was using the one that I've used from last class which is on just a sticky note and I kept it in my car so I wouldn't forget but then my car had to go to the shop so I'm using someone else's car. Anyway, just human life. Things that got in the way again and I was like, maybe 10 minutes early, when I would like to have been 15 minutes just to get to know the gal better, but overall still pretty good. I enjoyed the class we did today. There was a couple moments where the little kiddos were getting distracted because there's pens just set out on the like a bunch of colored pens markers and paint, like Crayons Set out on the tables. So, Those kids were kind of playing with those so I had to kind of move that that's a note for next time that I'm definitely going to go ahead and move those before class starts because they get too distracted even though that's the way that the teacher sets it up. So hopefully next class, it'll be a little bit more straight forward. A little bit easier to have them pay attention but there kiddos. So they're known to do that overall though. Pretty good. Pretty good.

Okay, I thought things went pretty well today. For Thursday. The location that was sent to me via email about where the classes would be held, was a little bit misleading because it took me to their Middle School location instead of their Elementary School location. So I was a little bit later than I wanted to be, so I didn't get to truly prepare as much as I would have liked outside of that. However, everything I think went pretty smooth, the only thing I think that I would have wanted To do better is to have maybe a means to set up my computer so that I could present. Am I still in last minute? But since I have such a small them, I was able to kind of get that figured out without much chaos. But yeah, I think next time, I'm just going to be able to come in with the amount of time that I would like to have, which is a little bit earlier than what I had today. Just because, yeah, I went to the wrong location. But other than that, everything went pretty smooth. We learned about stink bugs today, so, that's it for me.
