A Fun Filled Day of Field Trips

Today we spent a day learning new things out in the real world. We started our morning off by visiting The Toledo Museum of Art. The students were very engaged in learning about all the amazing art work, including pictures, decorative art and sculptures. Then, we traveled to MacQueen's Orchard where we had a picnic lunch and learned about how apples are grown and the process it takes to get the apples and cider to the consumers.Talking with the docent in one of the galleries.
