Tuesday

Hi Parents!!

What a day! Hope you're not missing your children too much, though we know they miss you, as well as having a great time in Florida.

In the morning, after a delicious complimentary breakfast at the hotel, we went to Disney: Magic Behind the Show: Improv and Team Work. This was a workshop that taught us a little about how to act and perform. Some of our students got to volunteer and be on stage! It was an excellent experience, and the students greatly enjoyed it. After we spent some time in Disney, enjoying the nice weather. We also rode on a few rides as we enjoyed our recess during the early afternoon. We also had a small lunch in the park.

Later in the afternoon we headed to our classroom at our hotel and had our day's lesson. Today was history, and we learned specifically about the Medieval Times of Spain, and a little about knights. We used a booklet we received from the Medieval Times dinning attraction we attended. We read a few selections from the booklet to learn about the cultures, customs, traditions, and legends of this time. We read some of the selections together as a class, some in small groups, and others to ourselves. We discussed what we read in each one either as a class or in our small groups. After the lesson, we hopped on our bus and went to the Kissimmee Castle at Medieval Times for dinner, to gain more information on this time. There we got to be emerged in the culture. This was a great experience! We got to watch a jousting tournament during dinner and our yellow knight won! The dinner was very good, and We also got to tour the Medieval Life Village. There we learned a lot about daily traditions and cultures of the time. Throughout the day the students were able to learn many new things about a different time period and the culture its people lived in.

We hope you are all well and we will see you in a few days!
