Well, I just took my psychology final on Thursday morning, so hopefully I did well. I'll probably start working on my take-home history final today or tomorrow. And then on Tuesday, I'll take my Human Nutrition final and turn in my honors history final to Mr. Nimps.
Now that the school year is almost over, I will be working full-time at the daycare center in Anna, Ohio. I have a lot of responsibilities this summer. I am school aged summer program coordinator. I have lots of fun-filled activities for each week. During finals week, the kids will be learing about NASA, Neil Armstrong, and the planets. They will build bottle rockets and launch them at the park and then at the end of the week they will visit the Neil Armstong Air and Space Museum.
In July, I am having a farm animals week. Many guest speakers will come in such as the pork queen and the dairy princess, and the kids will also have the opportunity to make homemade ice cream and butter.
I have spent about a month working on my lesson plans, and the Ohio State University Extension Office for Auglaize County has helped me tremedously. They have tons of curriculum kits for all ages that you can borrow. They have a rockets away kit, fishy science kits, bicycle safety kit, gardening kit, butterfly kit, nutrition kit, disability awareness kit, and much more. The Ohio State University Extension Offices have lots of resources that teachers can use to help create their lesson plans and I recommend people to go check it out.

Notes From Cheryl (6/1/05)
Well, it's the last week of regularly scheduled classes. Next week is final exams! We didn't have lecture today in Honors History. Instead, our class went out to the baseball field to play ultimate frisbee. It was sooo much fun, and we learned never to underestimate the power of our professor. Mr. Nimps can run, and he was pretty good. He made a few interceptions so it's a good thing he was on my team.
Our history class has done a lot of bonding (gettysburg trip and ultimate frisbee) and many friendships were made. It is my favorite class thus far. It's sad to realize that we only have one more day of class left because we all enjoy it soo much.
By the way, my team won. 25-23.
