November Field Trip

I must first apologize for being behind with my posts. In November we took a field trip to a farm about 20 minutes away from the school. The bus ride alone was a day-maker for the kids. It was amazing to see their faces light up just from getting to ride in the school bus.

At the farm, we were able to see all different types of animals such as cows and horses. The kids were shocked to see turkeys, ducks, chickens, and a goat. One student even told me that we were at a crazy farm because these animals don't belong at a farm! What a great learning opportunity. 

Besides seeing the animals, the students were put into a weighing mechanisms to see how much our class weighed. We topped the scale at 1006 pounds, as much as a cow! They of course thought that was awesome. One little boy even said that I didn't have to get on the scale because I'm beautiful no matter what. You just have to love kids!

To top off our day, the students were able to sit on a tractor and have their pictures taken! It was a perfect day. On our way home the students were given an apple from the apple trees that were at the farm. Many of them even fell asleep. It's tiring work touring a farm.

I apologize for not having any pictures. I was having so much fun that I forgot to take any!
