I enjoyed seeing the other PODs Web quest. It is always fun to see a fresh look on how to do the same thing. It will fun try them out on some genie pig students and watch them work through the quest. The weather one was so creative in the wording of there task- the idea that the weather man can’t be found and that the student will have to become the weather anchor man. The Plant web quest photos where truly amazing. The “who did it?” was very strait forward; I like the idea of real life finding out. The American one made me start singing it’s a grand old flag. It reminded me of the fourth of July, watermelon, and fireworks. They choose some really interesting facts to learn about. That feeling for our countries history needs to be taught.
Dalton Sherman speech on believe in me was amazing. Students will rise to the stander you set for them. Believing in them is what really makes the different. Everyone in the school is apart of the education of a child. It goes back to the idea that it takes a whole town to rise a child. It was an inspiring talk to end the semester with, I think I will need to watch it again when I get my degree. What a cute kid- he has a lot of guts.

Sweet moments
These three weeks of field where full of learning, fun, and failures. It has been a learning curve. Leaving the class was a bitter sweet moment. In these short weeks I have learned to love the class. Each of the students were so cute and have the funniest personalities. For our review of what we had been teaching them we made a jeopardy power point. We got the schools projector, had the students sit on top other their desk, and turned off the lights. The students really enjoyed it. We could have made it even harder than we did. We taught four grade social studies, which is Utah history. The teacher had already gone over most of the core so we did more local history. Here are some photos of wild animals in that live Alpine mountains.
