Discover New Friends at Discovery Place

I was so happy that all students were able to make this trip to Discovery Place.  It was an awesome experience!  The bike ride there was a challenge for some, but we did it!  The students performed their song and dance brilliantly and the seniors loved it!  Children then met with individual Senior to read to them and ask some important questions about what life was like 70 or 80 years ago when they were in first grade.  The conversation flowed and all were treated to cookies and juice.  It was so much fun we stayed longer than planned and made it back to school just in time for home time.  The students were so excited and felt they had gotten to know a Senior Citizen and learned a lot about the past.  They have a lot to share.  I sure hope everyone remembers what they learned when we share on Monday!
