firming up the details

dear all

I've been in contact with Kelly Carr re: our group project. the day (December 5th...next wedensday) and the time (6-9pm) will work for her...but the age group will be pre-teen and teen agers. Not exactly hip to the whole "story time, face painting" thing. We need to have suggestions for this age group ASAP.

In all honesty, I don't feel very confident that we will be getting a good grade in this class. My underconfidence is not a product of anyone in particular, but with the whole set-up in the first place. I think that we had a hard time getting approval, and we have had no luck getting together outside of class either. I blame myself equally for this apathy. What can we do to turn this around?

The following is my e-mail to Kelly, with our suggestions for activities. Again, most of these will not work for the age group involved. I want you all to know that I have worked with issues like this upset before, and I have done more with less...we just have to be creative and committed.

I look forward to hearing from all of you soon.
