Monday

Greetings!

What a day! We hope you aren't missing your students too much yet. Today, we started off the trip with a bang as we explored Disney's Ocean Discoveries workshop and learned plenty about different marine life! We teachers thought the sharks were pretty scary, but none of the students broke a sweat seeing them.

After learning about marine biology, we switched to a completely different topic as we went back to our hotel and did a lesson on geography. We talked about the ethnic and cultural differences between different countries and different continents, and even ethnic and cultural differences within countries. We ended up getting into a discussion about how living in Pennsylvania versus living in Florida creates cultural differences as we saw today while we were in Disney.

After our lesson, the students got to explore Epcot's countries tour. We saw plenty of different countries, including Italy and China, the latter being shown in the picture above. After we were done in Epcot, the students got to finally head back to the hotel for some well deserved R&R. Tomorrow we will be heading out to an improvisation workshop in Disney, followed by a history lesson, and an action packed dinner and show at Medieval Nights!
