First Field Trip

In today's school mail, you should have received a note and permission slip for our upcoming field trip to the Planetarium located at Pierce Middle School in Merrillville. Please turn in the permission slips as soon as possible. If I have to choose chaperones, it will be done on a first come-first served basis. I am hoping, however, that all parents who want to will be able to attend.



The Planetarium field trip coordinates with topics we have or will discuss in class. For example, one of our vocabulary words this week is constellation. Also, while reading Pedro's Journal, we read about the sailors used the North Star to help navigate. We will continue to discuss and read about stars during the month of November. This should be an exciting trip that helps students to visualize what we are doing in class. I hope you are able to join us! If not, look for the post-trip pictures on the blog.
