Field Trip Fun


My first grade team went on a great field trip today. I love it when you can have fun with your kids and meet standards at the same time. I teach in Georgia but we are only a little more than an hour’s drive from Greenville, South Carolina; home to The Children’s Museum of the Upstate. This interactive children’s museum is three floors of sciency fun!  It’s a perfect place to explore those co-requisite science standards that include Habits of Mind and the Nature of Science.  Students explore, observe and make connections about science concepts.  And it’s all so much fun!

The little guy in the seat next to me on the way home was determined NOT to fall asleep on the bus.  These pictures were taken over a total span of about 3 minutes.
