I am very pleased that you have come to teach us, and I love every second
of it. I can’t believe how much we have grown spiritually and mentally. . . . I
was always looking forward to Wednesday because I love sports, mainly
soccer! (personal communication, fourth-grade student, 2006).
We do numerous things with [the university]. Some of things we do is
art and PE. We even do writing. We do many things with them but I enjoy
art the most. The teachers are the best! I think writing is good too (personal
communication, fifth-grade student, 2006).
With Art we get messy sometimes. But we always have fun crafts in
store. Like one year we made pop-up books. The things I liked the
most was when Dr.—[university mentor] would come and help in our class.
She would teach us how to write. Also she always had a special treat for us
or a gift for the class (personal communication, fifth-grade student, 2006).
