7/29/2019 Week 9

Regarding my week 1 letter:

I was right about meeting a lot of people. I definitely got to know my peers. I wish I could have let my guard down a little more and have been more open. I definitely made connections that will influence me for the rest of my time at Michigan. I also fulfilled my expectation that I would work on creative ways to engage children in STEAM and literacy. I did so even more than I expected.

I grew a lot mostly by being put in uncomfortable situations and having to accept them. I am now more relaxed about what I can’t control. I have learned that I need time with my family and close friends to recharge after a long day of being uncomfortable.

Thank you, everyone, for this great opportunity.
