It's been good working with these little critters this week; such an impressionable age they are: moldable like.. playdough, like... jello, or cookie dough, or any kind of dough. So far in working with Summit I've gotten to make people speak with only animal noises (and thus they have taught me what sounds a hippo makes, as well as a kookaburra, koala, wallabys and ant-eaters). I have also confused their langauges so they could complete a task using the second language they learned in high school. I called that element "the Islands of Babel"... It's been neat facilitating the groups that really get it-- to learn to work as a team and listen to each other even if they have no idea what language or animal they're hearing. Some of the kiddos take away good life applications-- trust mostly. Like the proud kid who suddenly gets blindfolded, now needing someone's help: or the quiet kid-- learning to ask for help or to offer it. It's a fun little job I have this summer; and wow, this fog is really convincing when we use the "Rain Forest" scenarios on some elements.
!Hola Raquel! ?Como estas?
