For my Nurse as an Educator class, we have a group project in which we have to teach. The first week of the term, we split up into groups of 4, were given a list of topics to choose from, and chose a topic for our group. My group will be going to an elementary school and teaching a group of 3rd graders, so we chose the topic of internet safety. However, another group also wanted that topic and we ended up having to choose another one.
Finally, after going back and forth between bullying and health and fitness, our teacher persuaded us to go with bullying. This project is a huge portion of our grade for this class, so it is something we are working on all quarter long. To get ahead of the game, my group spent about 5 hours on a Saturday afternoon working on the project; researching, writing papers, etc.
Well, yesterday, we got an email from our teacher informing us that the school we are going to specifically requested that we go over first aid with the class. What?! Are you kidding me? We spent all that time and effort on this project and were feeling good about being ahead of schedule! Now, we have to start all over?!
So, after class today, we got together for a couple of hours and started on our new topic. We still have some papers to write, but at least we got a good start on it (again).
