This is my second year being in the One Laptop Per Child class and I am very excited to be back! Last year I took the class all year, but ended up not going on the trip. I really regret not being able to go on the trip and I’m hoping this year I will be able to. The class last year was so much fun and rewarding. We created lessons and worked with Scratch to give students in Kenya a better way to learn about their own health and basic health facts.
I am looking forward to being able to create more ways to teach others whether it be our own 4th graders or people across the ocean. I enjoyed working with Scratch and learned interesting ways to take on a problem and how to solve it. When creating the lesson we had to think in a way someone younger than us does in order to create a good lesson. Working with the younger kids was a lot of fun and it made you rethink on how you approach different topics that they haven’t learned yet. I can’t wait for the rest of the year!
