On Thursday as a culmination to our map unit, we took a walking field trip around our town. We highlighted our route on our maps before leaving so we could follow along as we walked. We stopped by the fire station, library, post office, city hall, our gazebo and the museum. At the fire station the wonderful firefighters had their water hoses out in a fun maze for us to walk through. At the library we heard a story acted out with puppets by the librarian called the Spider and The Fly. At the post office we mailed letters we had written to our friends in the envelopes we had addressed. At city hall we met the city manager, took a tour and received a sweet little goody bag. At the gazebo we enjoyed our sack lunches. At the museum we enjoyed a popsicle treat, walked through several parts of the museum and asked questions. The students were so well behaved and had a wonderful time!
