My field trip to Discovery Science Center

Today I went to the Discovery Science Center. It was so fun. My favorite three things were the nail bed, the rope that use to you pull your body weight up, and the thing where you block the hockey pucks from getting in the goal. My chaperone was Mrs. Gates, she is Allison's mom. I was with Allison, Matthew, Michaela, and Mrs. Benke. Oh yeah! We watched a movie in 3-D about dinosaurs. I liked how much the movie popped out to our faces. When it was lunch time we went under the freeway and once we got up at the other side, there was a park and all the chaperones brought blankets for us to have lunch on. Before lunch we also went to the Dino Quest exhibit. The chaperones got a map and a wand and on the other side of the map was what fossils we had to find. When we found the fossils we had to do a jabbing motion with the wand at the fossil. A speaker next to the fossil would say, "YOU FOUND THE _(blank)_ FOSSIL." We also went shopping where you have to use the scanner to scan the exact thing. Sometimes the picture on the cart looks like the item on the shelf but it has to be the one with the recycled label, for example. On the way back we played around in the car. Then Mrs. Benke told us to play the quiet game. While we were being quiet, Mrs. Benke said she should do that more in the classroom. Mrs. Gates said that she should do that anytime she is with kids. On the way back we saw Nathan and Noah in Nathan's car. When we got back to class Mrs. Benke paid most of us who were in the car with her 50 Benke bucks because we played the quiet game. When we got home I Skyped my Dad because he is in Japan. And we had a lot of fun talking. And then at 7:15, we Skyped him again.
