The field trip yesterday to Leonard's Mills was fabulous! It was pretty buggy, but the kids were troopers and didn't let it take away from the fun. Some of the highlights were the fish ladder, where the kids were catching and releasing alewives in big nets, sometimes they caught 5 at a time! There were "old-timey"games, crafts and a lot of learning more about Maine logging history, especially the the Lombard Log Hauler. As one student put it, " I guess people were pretty smart back then." I guess she was right.
Many thanks to our wonderful parent volunteers, the trip was so much more fun and interactive with all of you there to support our class.
