First Field Trip

The First Field Trip of the year was to visit our city council and then explore the old buildings in Sam Houston Park.  We had quite an exciting trip.  First, we were questioned by one city councilman who rewarded the right answers with a dollar coin!! Next, we headed to the city council meeting room to see the Mayor in action.  However, the meeting was short that day and they were done by 10:30!!  That's okay we ran into another council member who took us through all the secret passageways under the streets to visit various offices.  Everyone was so nice and helpful.  Then we headed to Sam Houston Park.  Our class was split into groups and we visited several old historical buildings.  I think the favorite was the old log cabin.  We actually used tools that the pioneers used hundreds of years ago! Finally, we ended up eating lunch inside the gazebo.  It was perfect weather and a great first field trip.  A special thanks to all the parents who helped.  We cannot do it without you!!
