May Field Trip

Our May Field Trip is right around the corner.  During the morning hours of Friday, May 10th, we will be going roller skating in Oaks Park.  This is part end-of-the-year celebration and part PE lesson, because we will be receiving skating lessons prior to getting out there ourselves!  After that, we will need to travel downtown so that we may experience Chinatown with Teacher Wenny.  Beginning this week, 8th graders will be reading The Good Earth, by Pearl S. Buck, as well as studying the growth of China over the 10th Century. Downtown, we will be dining in a Chinese food restaurant, where students from our Chinese class will be ordering food for us.  Then we will be traveling over to the Lan Su Chinese Gardens for a guided tour of their beautiful grounds.  This one is not to be missed! 

If you are available to be a driving chaperone, please email me at your earliest convenience.
