I have begun to work even more depth with creating the EDUC Resources page and I love it! Creating activities and thinking about what we should/could include within a webpage for educators is so much fun. I have become more intimate with some information I never learned in school; such as the shift from making toys from metal in WWII to wood and types of plastic. I have also been working on several scripts for our Prelude event which houses several living historians. Creating these scripts forces me to get outside of the normal parameters of the tour script and make it more intimate and first person story telling. I have never done anything like this before, making it a learning curve, but I am optimistic. I also helped lead a school night for 21st century grant school Moneta Elementary where I gave these students the induction exam that a soldier would have had to take back in 1943. I am having a blast all while working on my communication skills while also forcing me to be creative and inventive with my activity designs.
