A few weekends ago I went to a farmer's market while I was in Steamboat Springs here in Colorado. I love going to farmer's markets because you can find so many cool and unique things. I typically love buying local honey at the farmer's markets near where I live in Denver. This particular farmer's market in Steamboat had more than just food items, they had unique products like candles, jewelry, and art pieces. I enjoyed looking at all the art sections that they had there, I even bought a small card with a drawing of two whales on it. The market felt very welcoming and I enjoyed this fun Saturday morning activity.
This will be my final post! I have enjoyed writing my small blog entries this semester for this course... I do not post on my Instagram or Twitter really so I hadn't "posted" or "blogged" about something in years. I really enjoyed this activity though and as a future teacher, I would love to incorporate something like this into my future classroom! I believe that if I were to incorporate a blog project like this, it could perhaps be a space for kids to share their ideas freely without the judgment or fear that they may feel if they were to talk about it 'in-person' in a classroom. It has also been fun to get to read other's entries and to comment on their posts and if I were to use this idea, I would love getting to see how my students communicate and acknowledge each other's ideas, life, and perhaps even personal topics that they decide to share about. Thank you all for reading visiting, reading, and living kind comments on my blog this semeste...
I love farmer's market products too! My brother goes whenever one is close-by and always gets their honey. I've never been there personally, but seeing this experience from someone else makes me definitely want to go!
ReplyDeleteI love local honey, too, and it helps with my allergies! I haven't been to a farmer's market in so long, but I look forward to them in the summer. :)
