Thomas CO #3

I sat in Kyle Kaminski’s 11AM reading class for my 3rd class observation. The man doesn’t act any different from when he was introducing the cultural workshops as well as during them. He is very friendly and speaks with a loud booming voice (I would compare him to a lion if he was an animal). He also likes to joke around with his students a lot. Regarding the class material, he had the class go over a worksheet that was about candy and broke the students into groups to discuss the questions; he wanted them to pay particular attention to the second questions which was about what candy is known in their home country (I think). Right after breaking into groups, he greeted me and invited me to take part in the discussions but I preferred to take notes. He had the class build a vocab words they didn’t know and explained words such as “citric acid” and “stateside”. He did give unusual examples such as explaining that absorbing is when a pen enters his body when sponge absorbing water would have been a better example. All in all, Kaminski’s class was pretty fun and although I woke up 15 minutes before class started I wouldn’t be able to fall asleep in his class.
