  1. I took outdoor adventure because I had heard such great things from sibling and older friends about the class. I also took it because devils lake and all the activities like rock climbing and class bonding looked like a a lot of fun! Yeah it's been what I've expected and even more!

  2. After hearing all the great things about outdoor adventure, I decided I wanted to do outdoor adventure. I also wanted to do it because I like to rock climb and do high ropes courses and teambuilding! So far, it's been a lot of fun and it is like what I expected and I can't wait till we do even more.

  3. I signed up for adventure ed. because my siblings told me great things about the class. They really got me interested and excited to be in this class. It has been a lot of fun and has met my expectations,but hasn't exceeded them, yet. I'm hoping that by the end of this class, it will have far exceeded my expectations and i'm looking forward to the experiences i'll have in this class.

  5. I took outdoor adventure because I heard a lot of great things about it. I also took it because I love team building and getting to know a variety of different people. Devils lake sounds like a lot of fun too! I have enjoyed this class so far and getting to know the people in. This class has already reached above and beyond my expectations.

  6. I signed up for outdoor adventure because I have heard a lot of good things about this class from seniors such as the trip to Devils Lake and the activities done in class such as using the rock climbing wall in the gymnastics room. So far it has been what I expected and I have enjoyed the activities we have been doing.

  8. I took this class because its unlike any other class. Im also an outdoorsy kind of person so I figured this would be a good class for me. My brother has told me that this is a fun class and devils lake is an awesome experience. I wasn't sure what the class was going to be like so I didn't have any expectations.

  9. I took Outdoor Adventure because I heard that it was really a fun and exciting class from past students. They said that they learned a lot and that it was a great way to test your own limits. So far, it has not been what I expected because I thought it was basically going to be more about adventurous activities rather than learning more about your classmates and trusting them. Even so, I am still excited about what is to come in the future.

  10. I took outdoor adventure this year because i heard that its a chance to test yourself and try new things. Im afraid of heights but i hope this class can help me get over that fear and let me go outside my comfort zone to discover new things i never would have been able to try on my own. This class so far has been what i expected and i know it will only get more fun as the year goes on.

  11. As everyone's been saying, I took outdoor adventure because I heard great things about it from other students. Another contributing factor is that I was originally in leader gym, but I decided that wasn't the class I belonged in. I can barely even catch a ball, so the idea of me leading a gym class is ridiculous. To take a spot from someone who really deserved to be in that place seemed wrong to me, so I switched into this class. So far, I'm very pleased with my decision and it has more than lived up to my expectations of a class where I can push boundaries and bond with my peers.

  12. I took outdoor adventure because I heard a lot of great things about it. I thought it would be a fun and different gym class that I would have a good time in. It has been a lot of fun so far and I am really glad I took this class. It has been exactly like I expected and I am looking forward to see what I can get out of the class. I think it is going to be a great year and I am really excited to see what we will be doing in the future.

  13. I took outdoor adventure because I didn't know what gym class to take and most of my friends had already taken it and said it was fun and easy. Also, I was interested in doing all the climbing activities and going to Devil's Lake. I heard there was a lot of trust activities in this class from people so, so far it has been what I expected and I'm excited to see where it leads over the course of the year!

  14. Many friends of mine have taken Outdoor Adventure or are currently taking it for a second time, and they recommended it to me because of how much fun they had and the friends they made in class. Plus, I didn't want to take yoga or strength and conditioning because those don't really sound all that exciting. (At least for a whole year it doesn't) I've been rock climbing before (yearsss ago when I was younger) and remember liking it so I guess I just wanted to try it out again. Thus I signed up for this class. So far, it has been exactly how I remember hearing about it so there wasn't much shock when I found out that we wouldn't actually be climbing until the second semester. I have to say, though, that I have been having a really fun time in Outdoor Adventure and probably will take it next year too!

  17. I took outdoor adventures because everyone that has taken it recommends the class. The class gives you a chance to try new things and activites you don't get to try very often like rock climbing. I can't say the class hasn't or has been what I've expected because I didn't have anything in mind, but so far it's been fun getting to know the class and going out of my comfort zone with the games we've played.

  20. The main reason I decided to take outdoor adventure was because my sister and my friends had taken it and said it would be a good experience. Another thing is that I wanted to get over my fear of heights, which should make climbing fun...

  22. the reason i took outdor adventure was because i though/still think it can help me get over my horrible fear of heights becouse i would love to be able to skydive, rock climp ect: do extreme stuff but i can because im scared of heights!it has totally been what i expected so far and even more because i tought the class was going to be not that boring but boring in a way and it's defenatly not boring so hopefully i will get over my fear and the class keeps getting beter and better!:)

  23. I was origianlly going to take yoga, but it turned out that only seniors can take it, so my counselor put me in adventure ed. I'm actually kind of excited for this class. So far I like it alot and look forward to it everyday. Hopefully I will be able to handle anything that comes my way!

  25. I thought it would be an interesting class to take. I was excited for the trip to Devil's lake and it seemed like an interesting alternative to regular gym.

  27. I signed up for Outdoor Adventure because one of my friends who graduated two years ago told me that it was one of the funnest classes she ever took and I've been to Devils lake before and I really like it. It has kinda been what I expected so far because I already knew that theres a lot of team building activities in the beginning of the year.

  30. I decided to take adventure ed because from all my older friends they said it was a blast and really exciting. Also i always see adventure ed classes having so much fun in the gym when i was in my own classes last year and the year before.
    It hasnt really been what i expected in a good way, i thought it would be strickly climbing things but its alot of getting comfortable and meeting new people which is really fun!
