Educating in the Outdoors. Class is always in session. So if you’ve meandered onto this page, you’re probably looking to learn a little bit more about yours truly. Or maybe looking for embarrassing pictures, who knows? So my name is Chris, and I’m a mid twenties guy from central New York state. You know, the greener part with the rolling hills and dairy farms and the ability to see the sky when you look up. Yeah, that part. 8221; I graduated with a degree in biology and a passion for teaching. You are co...

https://educatingintheoutdoors.wordpress.com/2014/06
Educating in the Outdoors. Class is always in session. June 30, 2014. June 30, 2014. Well, I’m smack dab in the middle of training right now. I’ve got a new very temporary (six weeks only) job for the summer before I move onto something a touch more long term (a year or so), and of course… training. Twelve hours a day, every day, for over a week. So I picked a crappy time to go ahead and start a blog, didn’t I? Yes, that is important! I overheard someone say it later but it was just quiet enough for me t...

Seven Hours to Go… | Educating in the Outdoors
https://educatingintheoutdoors.wordpress.com/2014/08/05/seven-hours-to-go
Educating in the Outdoors. Class is always in session. Seven Hours to Go…. August 5, 2014. Choose a job you love, and you’ll never work a day in your life. As I sit here, on my only break today (which isn’t actually a break, its time to prep for class), with seven hours left to go in my ten days straight of work, nine of those days being 14-15 hours long, I can safely say…. I totally have a right to complain. We’ll be back to your regularly scheduled bloggy-things whenever I feel like a human again.

Educating in the Outdoors. Class is always in session. July 25, 2014. July 21, 2014. So here’s the scene:. It’s 7:49AM. You’re in rural Virginia, walking down the stairs to meet your group of fifty seventh graders for breakfast (after being awoken exactly 7 times by one student during the night who insisted he was going to die). You get to the base of the stairs, open the door, and you see a group of students huddling around the water cooler. Students never hover around the water cooler. Honestly guys, h...

Educating in the Outdoors. Class is always in session. And so it Begins…. July 7, 2014. July 11, 2014. Today was our first full day with the campers we’ll have until Saturday.
