Today, my main job was to come up with a detailed lesson plan for
the culture diversity workshop. And I spent a lot of time thinking and
recalling my memories of workshops I had had in EDUC 593 class,
and then I brainstormed different activities for different parts and
chose the most suitable one. When writing down the detail lesson
plan, I also need to consider about many tiny things, like the size of
the room, how many tables and chairs are there in the room and so
on. And again, I felt like the experience and knowledge of EDUC 593
class is really practical and useful.

Today I first discussed with Einas on my lesson plan for the culture
diversity workshop. She gave me appreciation on my work, which
makes me feel quite happy. And at the meanwhile, she also gave me
one suggestion that I could make a list of countries for students to
choose from, as it can avoid the situation where students just
choose the ones they are already familiar with and push them to
learn some new things. I really think her suggestion is reasonable,
so I did some research on the countries all around world and make a
list of country for students to choose from. And then we continued
to work on the list of college for the college newsletter. I really
appreciated Einas s help, as she has more knowledge of American
colleges and provided me a lot of important ideas. Thirdly, I then
searched for the pictures for the gallery exercise. And it is more time
consuming than I supposed, as I need to include as many countries
as possible and also find out the things that are most representative
for the country.

Today, I just worked in the office on the newsletters. I searched
online a lot to find out information and things attractive to students.
And then I began to write the 7th newsletter for Virginia Union
University. Nothing special happened. And I felt a little bit bored to
work in office. Working with students brings more fun to me.

Like last few days, I worked in the office today, without too much
interaction with students. But in the morning, on my way to the
office, I met one SMP student and we talked a lot about our program
and things about China. It seems she like the program a lot and is
interested in Chinese culture.

Today, I first worked on the newsletter and finalized it and printed it
out. And then, I had a meeting with Gail and Einas on the potluck
tomorrow. We decided to order delivery from different restaurants
and to show students with different cuisines from different
countries. And I also planned to find some music and performance
online, so that students can taste different foods and appreciate arts
from different cultures at the same time.

Einas and I went to restaurants to get different foods from different
country. Weve got Korean foods, Thai foods, Greek foods, and
Ethiopian foods. And we listened to different traditional music from
different cultures. Kids and faculty had a great time at the potluck.

Today, I worked in the office with my colleagues. We discussed our
ideas and cooperated on the yearbook. Although it seemed to be
easy to gather the pictures and some texts together, it is more
complicated and time-consuming in practice. We people have
worked on this yearbook for about one week.

Salvation Army is the organization our students do volunteer work
in. And today is their last day there and they had a final
presentation with the kids there. It was my first time to the Salvation
Army, and the kids were very energetic, and our students kept a
good relationship with them. And in the afternoon, after returning
back, I helped the students to brainstorm ideas for tomorrows final
presentation and make the PowerPoint. I was happy to be with the
students here.

Today, we had the final ceremony. We saw the presentations of each
group and gave them the certification and gifts. I have had great
time with the kids, and it is so sad to say goodbye. I even burst into
tears at the end. Ive build up good relationships with the staff and
students in SMP. And Im willing to work there again if I have chance.
