This week we took the entire class on a
Wet Walk through the campus nature trails and into the heart of several cypress domes. This trip is always an "experience" because it is the first time the class is forced to truly get their feet wet...and they definitely let you know. It was my job to coax them along and make sure that nobody twisted an ankle or ran home at the first sign of mud. I swear that I would have been able to hear the girls shrieking bloody murder on the other side of campus. Of coarse once everyone got fully into the dome and discovered they weren't going to melt, they quieted down and started having fun.:)
Throughout the walk I assisted Sarah with teaching about the adaptations of the various species we passed along the way; as well as giving longer lectures about the specific plants that I had researched the previous week. Overall I think most of the class had a great time and no one got hurt.
