Sam's Field Trip

On the last day of school (before Christmas vacation) Sam has his first field trip of first grade. They loaded the bus around 8:15 heading to there fist stop: Constitution Village. I was not there during the tour of the village (but that was OK because I had been there last year with Sam when Shawn ran in the Rudolph Run). The next stop was Early Works, this is where they learned lots about how to be a good elf. When I meet up with the class they were enjoying an elf snack.

Then headed in to meet all the other classes from Ben Davis to receive their diploma from Elf University.



Back on the bus for the last stop of the day: The Train Depot. We started the tour with a lesson on how to train the reindeer. Tinka taught us how Santa helps his reindeer follow directions- the moms got to participate in this activity.

Then we enjoyed a trip to Whooville,


and seating on the train listening to the story, The Polar Express.



They also enjoy looking at a HUGE display of Christmas Villages.



What a fun trip to finish the first semester of first grade.
