Field Trips...

Chloe and Lauren sorting out their "clues"...

The Fourth Grade Class...
Chloe's class went to Vaos Nature Center outside of Minburn.  There they learned how to use a compass at "Compass University".  And then they were set free into 5oo+ acres of Nature!!  There the class was broken into groups and everyone had to find different clues.  At the end, the groups put there clues together to figure out the animal they were assigned.  We as parents, were only allowed to tell our group to "orient the map".  We couldn't help at all.  The kids really enjoyed being set loose into the open wilderness with prairie, forest, and wetlands.

Teagan's Kindergarten Class...
Kayla, Teagan and Brenna...
This man was just the CUTEST!!
Teagan has the opportunity to pet the baby lamb...

I had the pleasure of going on field trips with both Teagan and Chloe in the last 2 weeks.  Teagan's was to the Living History Farms and it was chilly and windy that day with an occasional shower of rain.  It was a nice trip but maybe a little long for kindergarteners.  They seem to loose interest towards the end of the trip.  Enough for now...-AS
