Project Summary: Super successful day once again for the 5th grade Play, Learn, and Care at Cherry Creek State Park. The weather was a bit colder than expected, but the students ran around enough that it wasn't an issue. The students arrive much earlier than the 3rd grade group and we followed this schedule for the day:
9:30-10:15 Students drive to Cherry Creek
10:15-10:20 Intro and split into groups
10:20-11:05 Group A: Boulder Bus, Group B: CO Mammals, Group C: Invasive Weed Removal
11:05-11:10 Walk to next rotation
11:10 -11:55 Group A: CO Mammals, Group B: Invasive Weed Removal, Group C: Boulder Bus
11:55-12:30 Lunch
12:30-1:15 Group A: Invasive Weed Removal, Group B: Boulder Bus, Group C: CO Mammals
1:15 Students drive back to Castro
Successes and Challenges: One teacher did forget her waivers, but Eve scanned to Taylor.
CMC programming was a bit short. Taylor and I (Delaney) were able to captivate the students for the full 45 minutes, but it seemed like the students were checking out during the slackline and skins and skulls programming. It may be worth it to try and chat with CMC to make sure their programs are fulfilling and long enough beforehand.
