Tomorrow's Plan for the Borlaug Farm.... (the sessions we'll see)
2) Insect Zoo!
3) Water Rocks!
4) Doughnuts into Spinning Wheels!
5) LUNCH - sack lunch from school:)
6) Norman's One-Room School House!
7) Iowa Floods!
8) Walking the Path (prairie fields)!
9) Renewable Future! (Huh? What's that???)
There will be other schools enjoying this exciting time: Notre Dame, South-Winn, Osage, and more!
This is such an amazing opportunity that 5th graders get to experience. How often do you get to visit the personal home of such an amazing person who changed the world? Get to see where he went to school? Walk on the same ground? See his boyhood carved initials? Please know how lucky we all are to have such a generous, HUMANITARIAN represent Iowa and specifically Crestwood Schools!
Remember these items for the trip...
1) Layered clothing- not sure what 's going to happen with the rain!
2) Shoes you don't mind getting a bit dirty (no farm boots though.. we talked about stinky, chunky stuff - ewww!)
3) Hooded sweatshirt or an umbrella if you have one (label this please!)
**No cameras, phones, iPods, etc. for picture taking. You just need to enjoy the day and LEARN something new. I'll be the photographer!
I'll know you checked the blog if you come in the room and do your attendance balloon. No need to get out ANY materials since we are NOT switching classes. But here's what you need to do...
1) Look for this book on the coffee table. 2) Find the one with YOUR name on it (some people need to share)
3) Read the section that I have post-it note marked.
4) Use the "Did You Know?" paper to write down something NEW you learned about the "boy who changed the world."
There's so much to this man's life that is interesting!
Have great nights! Thanks for a fabulous day!!
