Amazed
that a frozen river could create
such an awe-inspiring vista. Seeing parts of Yosemite I've
never seen before, 55 years old and have never been here
before. Great experiences about the plant life, geology,
insects, water quality and great ideas on how to present
it to my students. All fired up to try new ways to motivate
my students both in history and natural resources. What
better place to learn about and how to teach wilderness
than in the wilderness. Yosemite -- the essence of wilderness.
The sound of power -- water. Water rushing to the ocean
floor. "Each one-- teach one" -- I know just where
to use this teaching method. Would like to implement the
Junior Ranger idea at my school and grade level. It might
even work on some of our activities such as field trips.

My son's birthday
- 31. Native American Wilderness experience was great. Storytelling
is a great component especially the "Irish Experience".
Can't wait to access the website. Looking forward to next
year with great enthusiasm. Will set a goal to encourage
at least one WildLink studnet to apply for assistant position
or more.

I believe there is a strong
connection to teach all subjects with the outdoors or wilderness.
In conclusion my belief is that WildLink is a great program,
well organized and a great experience for any student and/or
teacher.
EXCELLENT! --
OUTSTANDING!
