On March 14, 2008, I visited the Parkview Elementary School Carnival to help my brother with the cotton candy stand that he was running. While I was there, I got to help my brother and see the interaction with students and I also got to walk around and see the students interactions with others while at the carnival. The students were really into the carnival and really excited to be there with their peers, teachers, and families. Being able to participate in these kinds of outside the classroom experiences really brings the teacher into the whole experience and the interaction with the families and kids too that they might not have within the classroom. Not only do teachers get to do activities and run booths at the carnival, they get to see students in a different setting where they aren’t confided to the “norms” of school. This is a great way to really see the students for who they really are and to see the students with their families and other friends that aren’t always around during school.
