I went on my first field trip! YAY! It was so exciting! We went to an old farmstead. Actually, the farmstead has not always been there. It was relocated whenever downtown Springfield started becoming a city. There are other buildings on the farmstead that have also be relocated. Even an old cemetary was relocated and I think all the kids enjoyed the cemetary at this time of the yar. The day was very exciting, and the weather was fantastic. It reminded me of the old homes in Nauvoo, IL. The tour guides were even dressed for the occasion. The fifth graders were great! And, instead of being Miss. Hill for the day, they were able to call me Aunt Nadia. Many of the students said that they couldn't call me Aunt Nadia because it was just weird so, they called me Miss. Hill or Aunt Hill. Haha.. I thought that was cute! We were able to make cookies in the kitchen, we sawed wood in the grainery, and we chucked corn in the barn. I can't wait to be a teacher!
This is a picture of the barn and the picture at the top is of the Gray/Campbell home.
