There are many ways I can use this experience in my future classroom. One way is that I can use the pictures and videos I've collected on this trip to take my students on a virtual field trip through Barcelona, Spain. I can also take my students on a virtual field trip through Rome, Italy as well. Both cities are equally as beautiful and hold great historical value. Students will love this activity.

I plan to display souvenirs I have purchased in both countries around my future classroom. As well as other places I have traveled outside of this study abroad trip. I will allow students to add to the display to show the different places they have been to or where they are from. I want diversity to be something that is valued in my classroom. It is important for children to appreciate the differences between one another.

Student teaching internationally has truly made me appreciate the US education system. I have developed cultural awareness and plan to use this in the classroom. I want my future students to learn about as many different cultures as they can to help them appreciate the one they live in and other cultures in general.
