Despite the cold temperature, the first grade class ventured out to Quarry Hill to continue their learning as scientists by making keen nature observations.
This time they measured live specimens and preserved samples.

Time to go back home.

Two more friends full of giggles on the bus.
Thankfully, Claudia's teacher put her foot down with the bus driver, who was balking at the idea of including regularly ambulating children on "Claudia's" accessible bus. Claudia had a much more pleasant experience sitting right next to a buddy. Sometimes it is the little changes that make a big difference.

Hug that teacher from me!! I love those smiles!! And I have some too because I have photos very very similar to these of the triplets' first grade field trip to Quarry Hill!!
Really - what an arbitrary rule to separate kids! Looks like a great learning experience. Barbara
Hey Beth! Awesome field trip! High five to Claudia's teacher. Us teachers must stand up for the best interests of our students. So good to see pics of your kiddos. Love ya mucho!
