MOSH Trip

Our trip to the Museum of Science and History was a blast!  What started as a dreary morning turned into a beautiful day! The students had a chance to explore the museums many exhibits! From walking through the human mouth and seeing how our body works, to roaming the streets through the history of Jacksonville, the students had a wonderful time. 

We were fortunate to attend the "What's the Matter?" presentation.  The students learned about the three kinds of matter...solid, liquid and gas.  Some of our friends even got to participate in the presentation! 

Our time at MOSH was followed by an outdoor lunch at Friendship Fountain! We were so lucky to have clear skies for this time of our trip.  What an awesome view for all of us!

"The Wheels on the Bus Go 'Round and 'Round"

Tuesday's field trip to MOSH marked the first time the children rode on a school bus.  This was a very exciting way to start a fun day! Being the proud teacher that I am, I was so excited to see the boys and girls remember "bus manners" that we discussed the day before.  The students used their CHAMPS Level 1 voice (whisper) and it made for a WONDERFUL bus ride.  I know our driver was able to drive safely and was very appreciative of our wonderful manners. 

Take a look at the friends as we got ready to depart our school.  (Don't worry...field trip pics will follow)

Spotlight on Seabreeze!

Wow!!I was logging on to our DCPS homepage and was so happy to see our very own Rockaway Gardens and Seabreeze family!  We have certainly always known how wonderful our partnership with the garden center has been this year.  It is wonderful to see it being recognized by our county! Way to go!
