Today, tomorrow, long days

End of school fun activities, but exhausting for me and my students. Today the third grade students had a field trip. We went to the county Fairgrounds where we went to several stations for agriculture and farming presentations. The students presenting were getting graded by the teachers who brought kids. I learned quite a few things, and it was GREAT for most of the kids. We were outside, we petted animals and learned more about them, including snakes and other reptiles. And spiders. My student, who does not know better, tried to squeeze the snake. I believe he thought it felt good. He was gentle with the bunny. In the afternoon we went to a movie, "Bad Guys" a Pixar movie.A lot of the kids have read the book. My student had never been to a movie. He liked the free popcorn and sat pretty well for a lot of the movie. He got to where he was trying to "talk" louder than the movie. He cannot talk, it was gibberish, and he does not understand "shush" or "quiet voice". Tomorrow is another long day. Field Day. We will have lots of outdoor activities all day tomorrow and sack lunches again. Boy, I am tired.
