Outside the Box – Christy Johnson
Each week students at the Renascence School International work hard in their language immersion classes to try and not speak any English. The Level 20 Class was not only able speak strictly Chinese in all three of their Chinese classes (Chinese language, Math & Science) but they did it for two weeks in a row! As a reward for their hard work, Mrs. Stahl arranged a surprise field trip for them to the Panama City Science and Discovery Center! Parents and teachers were able to keep it a secret until the day of the event! Students had so much fun hiking the nature trail, and engaging in all kinds of fun science experiments and gadgets. They were even able to go in the reptile room and see the spiders, snakes, lizards etc… that are part of the museum reptile exhibit. This was a favorite for many of the students! The children were able to practice their writing skills and wrote thank you letters to the Science and Discovery Center. Congratulations to the Level 20 Class for all of your hard work in earning ‘Foreign Language Expert Recognition’!
