April is coming to a close which means that May is right around the corner. May brings many exciting things such as five final exams, the pool party, graduation for the 8th graders, and of course the class field trips. Seventh grade will go to Sea Camp while eighth grade will visit Washington D.C! I'm so excited! I have been looking forward to the eighth grade field trip for two years and its unbelievable to think that it's about to become a reality. The trip is not only fun and interesting but extremely educational. It will help us understand social studies class more as well as have a greater appreciation for the experiences of past generations. As a grade, we will be visiting many museums and tourist attractions. The trip will be a great academic and learning opportunity for the whole class. The eighth graders have to report to the airport at 5am on a Sunday to depart for D.C and arrive back in Tampa on Thursday night. In Mrs.Mishalls class we have already had multiple discussions going over important rules for the students to follow in D.C. She has also given us tips and advice for packing and what to expect to encounter on the trip whether it be diversity or climate change. Everyone is already gearing up for this exciting learning experience!
