The pace that they move at is a lot slower but somehow twice the amount of energy is present. They\u2019re great kids; it was just quite a bit to take in at first.

I improvised some activity ideas to go along with the week\u2019s theme of science, and it went surprisingly well!! We did \u201cfossil\u201d imprints with air dry clay, mini lava lamps, and paper airplanes. For last minute ideas and my first time overseeing a class to this degree, I think I really knocked it out of the park. The kids had a great time, and I got genuine experience in how draining but rewarding managing a young class is.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www2.stetson.edu\/creative-arts-internships\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/image-6.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www2.stetson.edu\/creative-arts-internships\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/image-6-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2801\" style=\"width:305px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www2.stetson.edu\/creative-arts-internships\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/image-6-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www2.stetson.edu\/creative-arts-internships\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/image-6-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www2.stetson.edu\/creative-arts-internships\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/image-6-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www2.stetson.edu\/creative-arts-internships\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/image-6-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www2.stetson.edu\/creative-arts-internships\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/image-6.jpeg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www2.stetson.edu\/creative-arts-internships\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/image-7.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www2.stetson.edu\/creative-arts-internships\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/image-7-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2802\" style=\"width:296px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www2.stetson.edu\/creative-arts-internships\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/image-7-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www2.stetson.edu\/creative-arts-internships\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/image-7-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/www2.stetson.edu\/creative-arts-internships\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/image-7-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/www2.stetson.edu\/creative-arts-internships\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/image-7.jpeg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>On Friday, my supervisor and I did a fun skittle activity to compare if food dye dissolves faster with hot or cold water. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www2.stetson.edu\/creative-arts-internships\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/image-12.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www2.stetson.edu\/creative-arts-internships\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/image-12-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2807\" style=\"width:440px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www2.stetson.edu\/creative-arts-internships\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/image-12-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www2.stetson.edu\/creative-arts-internships\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/image-12-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www2.stetson.edu\/creative-arts-internships\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/image-12-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www2.stetson.edu\/creative-arts-internships\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/image-12-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www2.stetson.edu\/creative-arts-internships\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/image-12.jpeg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>We also took the little ones outdoors to draw with chalk.
