Reflection was the overall theme of the last Teacher Partner meeting of the 1999-2000 school year. Participants reflected on their accomplishments and how that affected future plans. They also used "reflection" to view celestial bodies in an evening star gazing activity.
The meeting was held at Camp Virgil Tate, owned and operated by the Kanawha County 4-H.
Participants followed directions to build and calibrate a telescope. Sandy reads the directions as Susan sneaks a peek.

Diane and Jo find there are many similarities between challenges in Kentucky and West Virginia schools.
It's always more fun to work outside, says John, Sandy and Mike. The weather was sure cooperating!
