First El Sol Visit of 2014-2015 Academic Year!

Today, on November 19th, SEE-IT visited El Sol Academy.  We met the new class that we will be working with over the course of the next academic year. Additionally, we encountered several students whom we worked with last year to hear about their experience. Last years' students wished we were still teaching them.
All members of SEE-IT were present (Conner, Edward, James, Rafe, Harry, Bobby, Randy, Jon). We began teaching at 8 AM and taught until 9:30. Each Sage student partnered with another to conduct modules that we cycled through the El Sol students through. The El Sol students were divided into four groups, as there were four modules. 
We are meeting to debrief. We are discussing activities that the students connected to and activities they did not engage in as well. As a consequence, we are making, changing, enhancing, and designing new activities for future visits. Our day was consistently positive. The only obstacle came when we found that the teacher was out for the day. Therefore, we worked with a substitute teacher.
