Today started off with a low ropes course. What a great team building activity! It was great to work with my teammates from Team Harmony to solve the challenges that were given to us.
Following that we did a break out session to talk about things that we have learned so far that we are excited to bring back to the classroom. The middle school math group talked a lot about problem solving. I was also excited about the idea of putting a washer on a string to measure degrees on a protractor. My 7th grade classes finished the year working on geometry, I see many ways this could be used for some real life activities!

Team Harmony...Learning so much from them already! |
Then we went to the water! We practice escaping from a downed helicopter, being rescued from a helicopter, and "jumping" out of a helicopter, What an amazing experience that is very unique to Space camp!

Following that we got a tour of the Davidson building/museum and started to design our patch.

Amazing! |
We ended the evening practicing for our mission tomorrow. Wish me luck as I head to the Space station!
