Today was a wonderful day for us on the internship front. Missy, Steph, and I met bright and early this morning at a local park in the Fraser Valley to really delve into the curriculum component of our internship. It was so nice to see each other in a face-to-face setting again.

We spent a majority of the morning testing out some of the lesson plans we have already created. We spent the morning planting seeds, while telling stories and discussing the different aspects of curriculum, topics, and themes we could or should include in our gardening & farming module.

 

After planting seeds, conversing, and taking notes on what else we wanted to include in our gardening module, we moved on to discuss the lesson plans in our other curriculum modules. We left the park this afternoon feeling accomplished but also motivated and rejuvenated for the weeks to come as we finish up our work on this internship and the Winter semester.

The three of us plan to meet again next weekend, where we will work on our placemaking module. It is going to be so fun! Fingers crossed the weather holds out as the weather network is currently calling for rain and snow. I love Winter but I am so ready for Spring!

We will be busy all week long working on lesson plans to fulfill our curriculum modules. In the meantime, keep an eye out for new blog posts and be sure to check out our gallery for additional photos about this project. We are so excited to share our finished lesson plans with you all. Stay tuned!
