Homeschool field trip.....




Yesterday we had another field trip at the science centre.  Sam and Abby both had classes to take.  Sam took 'Bubble Bubble' and came out with a beautifully scented picture created by soapy coloured bubbles.  He seemed to have had fun making all kinds of concoctions that created bubbles.  

Abigail took a grade 4 class - Umbra Penumbra - which was about light and the eclipse etc etc.  She enjoyed her class too.  

While there, we also went to the star theatre and watched a show all about the planets in our solar system.  It was show that was a little like a tv quiz show, and we all got to shout out the answers when questions about the planets were asked!  It was really interesting and I think we all learned quite a bit!

We also met this cute little guy:


Who turned out to be a Horseshoe crab!!

They are arthropods (have exoskeletons) and are considered to be 'living fossils'!!

Very interesting looking creature!!
