Field Trip!!!

Last week, I went on my very first field trip as a teacher!! I took my 4th graders to Montgomery, AL because we are studying Alabama History. It was kind of a flashback for me because I went to Montgomery in the 4th grade as well. It is definitely different being a teacher and having to keep up with students, rather than being a carefree 4th grader just enjoying the trip.

Our first stop was the Capitol.

The kids had so much fun laying under the rotunda!!

Next stop, the archives building! Funny story, this is next to Whitney's new office!! Unfortunately, she was in Birmingham having her bridal portraits made so she could not come visit us! :( But, fortunately for her, her pictures turned out AWESOME!! (Just a little side note...)

We also visited Old Alabama Town, which was so fun! I remembered going there as a 4th grader 

myself! Here is my sweet little class..the lady taking our picture wasn't a very good photographer..poor thing. 

Here we are at the Civil Rights Monument! I had never seen it before and it was so neat! There was a fountain that ran over the top and the kids got to put their hands in it. 

Overall, it was a very good day!! I loved watching the kids learn and they genuinely seemed interested in everything they were seeing. Field Trip #1- SUCCESS!!
