This week has been great! I got to see lava, teach several programs, and hold a boa constrictor! I even got First Aid and CPR certified!
Here is a picture with Dr. Warren Allmon, the Director of the Paleontological Research Institution, and Bella, the six-foot boa.
Here are some pictures from some of the programs I taught:
This program taught the children about the treasures in their terrain and about their own backyards history. Below are a few of the geologic timescale cards that they ordered along a 115' rope that represented Earth's history.
Thats me in the spacesuit standing next to a crucible containing 1150 degree Celcicus lava. I got to stir it up like a pot of gumbo. My face and legs looked sunburned after the two minutes I was up there standing next to it.
