Field Trip

This morning my Child Development class at school (CHLD 101) went on a field trip to the Bloomington Day Care Center.  I was a little late - most of us met there for class (those who didn't have cars carpooled from the school).   When I walked in the day care center, the rest of the class and the professor were listening to, who I assume was, the director of the facility talk about the facility.  The professor, and some students, asked some questions which helped draw more out of the director.   Then we got to walk around the facility and join some classrooms to observe.  I only observed a toddler room (15 months - 2 years old), which had six kids and two teachers.   The kids were so cute, and I felt very welcome and comfortable once in the classroom - even though I was just observing. We were at the center for about 30 minutes and then we left to go our own ways - nothing in class today.  Now we have about a week to do a write-up assignment on the observation.  Overall, I really had fun and enjoyed myself.  The time flew by way too quickly - it certainly didn't seem like 30 minutes when we left.
