大家好嗎,上個月我們去了一次郊遊同時準備我們的雙語認可計畫運動. 這篇網誌是由Alameda Encinal高中的10年級學生Kathy Yu寫的.(照片最左邊). 你們對她這篇文章有什麼想法呢? -Melanie

我們運動委員會,核心領袖,TI和Melanie一起去了Pigeon Point Lighthouse郊遊. 期間我們明白了更多關於我們這次運動的目標.我們不單只學會了我們的目標,同時也學會了如何去達到我們的目標.除了學習這次運動的目標外,我們同時學習了聆聽技巧和回應技巧. 當然除了學習新東西之外,我們同時也有機會可以跟核心領袖一起玩(在AYU的Retreat很少機會可以這樣呢..),這樣我們就更加和諧了!除此之外,遊戲和食物都非常好.還有那雄偉的無敵海景和周圍的風景更是讓人陶醉呢..最後來講,我認為這次retreat使我們運動委員會和核心領袖更加和諧了,同時我們大家都學到了新的經驗和得以訓練我們的領袖才能.

Hey Everyone! Last month we went on a retreat to prepare for our Seal of Biliteracy campaign. Here is a blog post by Kathy Yu, a 10th grader from Encinal High School in Alameda (far left in the picture). What do you think about what she had to say? -Melanie

We the campaign committee, with Cores, TI’s and Melanie had a retreat at Pigeon Point Lighthouse. During our stay at Pigeon Point, we were able to understand more about our goals for this campaign. Not only did we learn about our goals, we also learned how to reach our goals. Besides learning about goals, we also learned about some great listening skills and also responding techniques. During our stay at Piegon Point, not only were we able to learn new things, we were able to have fun and also have more interaction with Core Leaders (which we didn’t have much during the AYU retreat) which allowed us to be much closer than before. Futhermore, the games and food were good not to mention the great views of the ocean and its surroundings. Overall, I thought this retreat really helped us (campaign committee) become more closer with Core Leaders and also with each other. It also helped us with great learning experiences and leadership skills as well.
