I am looking forward to traveling to Colombia in a few days, as part of leading and participating in my very first IPDS program - one that is especially designed for practicing teachers. This will be my first trip to South America. While I don't speak Spanish, I am would like to learn Spanish and hope this trip will jump start a new language learning experience for me.
I am excited to visit three different schools in the cities of Medellín and Cartagena. It will be interesting to examine the similarities and differences among the schools and to learn about their instructional techniques. I also look forward to reconnecting with the Colombian teachers who visited Buffalo this past October. Along with meeting new teachers in Colombia, I'm excited to spend time with the local teachers with whom I'm traveling and to see the schools through their eyes. I am hoping to partake in some lively discussions about what we are observing in the schools. Finally, I'm happy about all the opportunities we will have in Colombia to soak up the culture. We have several excursions planned, along with free time to explore Medellín and Cartagena. It will be a full and fulfilling week!
