Juggeling group
 

Response by Rebecca Cesario

I have been writing
after each class in my own personal journal/attendance log, but I have
only written online about once. I hope that is okay. I have been
recording my thoughts, just not publicly. However, I thought it was about
time that I share some of my thoughts online.
I enjoyed the day of juggling/unicycling, though I did not get up to do
it. I felt uncomfortable, even though others were trying it. I'm not
exactly sure why. Perhaps if I knew more people in the class I would have
been a little braver. It was fun to see Dani try the unicycle though!
Maybe if we do it again someday I'll at least try juggling.
I also enjoyed learning how to make spirals-it's easier than I would have
thought, and it was fun experimenting with how to make them different. I
was unable to save it to the right place, however. Haha, I'm not the
greatest with computers. :-P
The past several classses I have met up with my Scavenger Hunt group. We
finally got everything together. It was a lot of fun and I feel very
accomplished. We started out by splitting into small groups and going to
separate floors to come up with math related clues/problems. Then we put
them all together into a scavenger hunt, made index cards for each of the
clues, and tested out the hunt on the other scavenger hunt group. It
turned out really great! I look forward to trying it out with little kids
too :) Though, we may have to make a few of our clues/problems a little
easier, depending on the age of the kids. I'm glad to be a part of the
scavenger hunt group though-it's been a lot of fun.
Anyway, now that I've written a novel, I'd say I'm pretty well caught up.
I may start writing a little more often online, while still keeping up in
my log journal. We'll see how it goes.

 today we saw juggling and
unicycling and related it to math. It really must take a lot of
coordination to do either of the two. There is a lot of math involved
with finding balance to succeed in that. We also shook everyone's hand
and counted how many times we did it.
