The trip is in two weeks, so I decided to do the last post myself. Students are wrapping up their semester, taking AP tests and studying for exams, so the next student posts you'll read will be during the trip.
It has been a year of ups and downs. I started with a small group of travelers to begin with, and then some of the parents got nervous about the Zika virus and sending their daughters to the Caribbean, so I am left with three girls for the trip. After the initial disappointment, there are some real benefits from having such a small group, and I am really looking forward to the trip. Since we are traveling to a new place, it was very important to still keep the commitment to be there. One of the students wants to be a teacher, so this will be an excellent experience for her. The other two are enthusiastic and knowledgeable. It will be a great learning experience for everyone. We will be switching to the trip blog, so please check there once we start to travel. Here's to a great experience in a new place!

In class we’ve been doing our Scratch project. My project was about changes in the body during puberty. I finished my project a little early, so I’ve been helping Ms. Murakami work on some of the other projects! I will definitely remember how much fun it is to program these lessons for the kids and learn how to make a lesson interesting! I’ve learned that I do like to code and program things on Scratch and that it’s really fun to challenge myself with that program! I’ve had a lot of fun making these lessons and I can’t wait for what the future holds!
