Today the 5th grade classes took a trip to the Civil War Museum in Kennesaw. It was amazing that the majority of my students had some type of phone. It kept them entertained for our hour ride to Kennesaw. We fit 7 classes on 4 buses.
Once we were at the museum, the classes split up with different tour guides. Our first tour took us by a small creek, and the railroad.
(Here are the students walking to the creek.)
(Shack by the railroad.)
(Trains kept coming through town. The kids seemed like they have never seen a train before. I believe we heard at least 4.)
(One of the tour guides demonstrated how the soldiers loaded and shot their weapons.)
(Inside the museum another tour guide explained how trains were first used and made. How are some of the wooden pieces.)
(We also watched a movie about the Southern train the General. The General was stolen by Union soldiers.)
(They don't make sack lunches like they use too, no chips or cookies. They just through in apples, baby carrots, ranch, and PB & J sandwiches.)
By the end of the tour, it was already 12:45. We had to wait until we got back to the school to eat lunch. I was so hungry, and so were the students. I had been hungry since 10:00 when we arrived at the museum. I guess my body is use to snack time:)
