Yesterday I spent the entire day traveling from Seattle to Detroit, then Detroit to Lansing Michigan. Lansing is the state capital and home to Michigan State University (The Spartans). It is also home to the developers of our math curriculum, Connected Mathematics. I am here with another teacher, for a 5 day training which will give me an in-depth look at the program, and give me the official credential to be a trainer for the district.
Traveling was not too bad yesterday, just a bore. we spent 3 hours in Detroit waiting for the connecting flight to be ready. The Detroit airport is very cool. There is an elevated, indoor train which you can ride along the length of the main terminal. There is also an amazing light/sound tunnel. It is probably 300 yards long, and music plays while lights in the walls and ceiling give an impressive show. I took some photos, but then found this video which gives a better idea.
Today is the first day of training. I really hope it is worthwhile, and not just an introduction course.
