Back Again!

The Trip to Amherst!  Awesome, cool things, let's look at some pictures.......First one...the CT River Valley millions of years ago....nice beach!

 We saw lots of bones, special rocks, gems.....dinosaur tracks, sedimentary plates with fossil prints on them!
 There were some very large skeletons....and some REALLY large skeletons!
 The students took lots of pictures.....marveled at the rock collection, listened intently to our guide at the museum and the planetarium.

We listened as the story of the Connecticut River Valley unfolded......millions of years at a time.









The story of the planets in the planetarium was really cool!  We even got some mug shots with the creatures in the museum.
 We wrote about the trip back in class.  There was so much to write about and so much we learned.  I think it was a great trip.....even though the ice cream happened the day after...but even that was well worth waiting for!

Bye for now,  Mr. B and Ms. Deb
