Week 6

This week has been crazy busy. I feel like all I've been doing is running around nonstop. This past Friday Deanna, Brooke, and I went to an outreach event that the city of Gainesville was hosting for the opening of a new road and the development and improvement of Gainesville. The FLMNH has a touch table (meaning everyone can touch everything on the table) filled with turtle shells, huge conch shells, Megalodon shark teeth models, and other things kids could look at. Our job was to ask people if they had ever been to the museum and to engage people and answer any questions they had. It was pretty fun- a lot of kids were so amazed by how big a lot of the artifacts were and got so excited when we told them that they were allowed to touch everything. 

The rest of the week has been more of the same. Helping out with summer camp, working on my project, and preparing for future weeks camp mainly. This week I am also the supply person for camp, meaning I have to put away all the supplies from this week and prepare the supplies for next week's camp, but that mostly doesn't start until the end of the week so I've just been reading up on what is expected of me. I'm definitely looking forward to next week, and things slowing down a little bit since there won't be any school.

  1. Beth! Sounds like you definitely had an exciting and eventful week :) What part of Gainesville was the event? Also, how did people respond--had most been to a museum before or not? See you in class!
