Hey Guys,
Well, my first week at Courageous Sailing Center and
Children’s Museum went so well. On Tuesday I was at Courageous and it was
interesting because we were with one group for the whole day. There were two
girls named Ellie and Kate, and I was with them specifically because they were
lefty’s just like me! It was super scary because Ellie was so tiny compared to
the fishing rod, and I was so scared for her because I didn't want her to cast the
rod and then fall over. At the end of the day, the kids were playing games
like Red Light, Green Light and Fishy Fishy, which was so funny because Sam
kept tagging one student in particular when playing Fishy Fishy and then he
kept saying that she never tagged him.
On Wednesday, I was at Children’s Museum and at first I was
so scared because I knew I had to teach kids how to fish when I don’t even know
that well myself. But, it was good that I broke boundaries and finally taught
someone, and they were so excited to cast a rod, and I felt happy as well knowing
that I made a child smile. During the day, we caught a spider crab which was so
exciting because I never knew that was a type of crab. It was scary because
they look more vicious than the green crabs, but in fact they aren’t, which was
pretty cool.
Lastly, today I was more comfortable because I knew how to
pick up the crabs properly and cast a rod to teach kids how to fish. I was
with Bella and Emily under the tent and a boy named Oliver came over who was very brave, and he picked up the green crab by himself then said,
“Please and Thank You.” I liked that feeling because
I knew he was enjoying his time.
Well I hope next week is just as exciting as this week when I’m at Courageous and Children’s Museum.
