Ms. Charlotte introduced the course as appreciating different people and their different beliefs in our community. At the beginning she had the class compare and contrast McKenzie and Meredith Conder. The class named many different observations about them, but found it was harder to name the similarities.
At the end of the course, the class separated into five different groups, and Ms. Charlotte assigned them to each make a different version of the songs "Happy Birthday", "Row your Boat", or "The Barney Theme" with musical instruments. The groups were very creative and worked very well together.
The class was also given their volunteer hours sheet and were informed more of the Chamber of Commerce breakfast on Thursday February 3, 2011.
Monday night Ms. Charlotte taught us all a valuable lesson of appreciating the differences in people. We learned despite how different we may be, we all have common intrests and we are able to work together as a team. Though she taught us in a fun and lively way with renditions of childhood songs and acting out stories, I can speak for everyone and say this class will not be forgotten. The night can be summed up in Meredith Conder's rendition of Happy Birthday, Row Your Boat, and The Barney Song; "I rowed my boat to see Barney and he told me he loved me...Life is but a dream!"
ReplyDeleteYes definatley...i enjoyed being the new big cheese..and Ms Charloette helped all of us to understand how to appreciate the differences in all kinds of people. The activities we participated in, helped the point across as well. Great job this week!
ReplyDeleteThis was a very good class. It taught the students that we need to appreciate the differences in every person and embrace them. The funnest part about the class was when the new Jackson-5 performed the songs
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed this class. The games were so fun and it showed us the being different is perfectly fine and fun! I love the games we play each week and how the point gets across to us in many different ways!!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed the class. It was fun when we Mrs. Howard broke us up into groups and we had to perform a song in front of the class. It showed us how our different personalities and opinions can be put together and become a group. Even though our singing and dancing was not the best...we should leave it to the professionals. Still I loved the class.
ReplyDeleteI loved this class! The activities were entertaining but yet they challenged us to work as a team. Hopefully I can take what I learned in this class and apply it to other situations.
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed this class! The class, people, and activities were very interesting. I really loved the story about The(NEW)Big Cheese. I also loved the group activities that were done because it really challenged us to work together and appreciate that everyone cant always do what you can do. Hopefully I can take what I learned in this class and let it stay with me throughout the rest of my life.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed that class! It was a great lesson filled with lots of activities to get the point across. I was personally very fond of the play about the new "Big Cheese." It was a very important lesson and I hope we can all apply this lesson to our lives.
