FIELD
TRIPS
Our class went on an exciting Field Trip to Trinity
College on November 15. We saw a modern version of the classic fairy
tale by Hans Christian Anderson The Ugly Duckling. It was a musical
entailed Honk. All the actors were High School students which was so
hard to believe because they were so professional . Our classmate
Luci Siliunas 's mother, is an art teacher at Trinity High School.
The set designs were beautiful. We learned the lesson of not judging
others by their appearance. Everyone has inner beauty that makes them
all swans. We came back to school and ate lunch in our classroom.
Our next Field Trip is going to the Adler Planetarium to see the
Star of Wonder. We will learn all about the Christmas star of
Bethlehem. We will also learn about the planets, the sun, and the
stars.
We have been very busy this year for Thanksgiving. We have
written prayers, made Thanksgiving leaves with our thank you's
written on the leaves. Our Tree outside our classroom, was sketched
by a professional artist Mr. David Hanke. Mr. Hanke has worked for
eight years at the Field Museum as an assembler of the Sue Dinosaur
exhibit . He now works for the Arboretum.
