The most creative thing I did this week was my lesson plan assignment. As an FHP Leader, we have to come up with fun but informative activities that will be beneficial for first year honors students. The assignment for this week was planning a "cool" tour of an important place on campus. It was due today and of course, I started doing it at like 10 last night. So the problem I had to overcome was plan a tour of a certain place with all the details planned out, which I couldn't call people at 10pm so what I came up with was... a scavenger hunt!! I decided to write up fun and informative descriptions of various buildings and they would have to go and take a picture of the building they thought was described. This way they would learn about the different buildings and the resources in that building and at the same time it required little preparation that I could get done in one night.
I loved your idea of a scavenger hunt! Having the freshmen walk around campus is a good way for them to get familiar with it. Also, some of the buildings around campus are super cool, so it's a fun way for them to explore new places! (Oh, and I'm glad I'm not the only one who puts off homework until 10 the night before!)
