I am a High School teacher that has proposed to my boss to be given a leave of absence to complete a thru hike this year. In order to be approved I have to show that the educational value of my experience will warrant my time off. Can anyone help me to think of ways I can incorporate my experience into a classroom activity.
Things I have thought of:
US Geogrophy lesson
Jouranling for English classes (read mine and write to me)
Nature study
I teach Tech Ed, more speciffically TV Production so i will have my students create a video about my journey.
Any other ideas that you can give me would really be appreciated. I have another meeting in a week where i have to present these ideas and then I will be told yes or no.
