Students from Room 8 visited an ice skating rink on March 22, 2013. Several students drew pictures of themselves skating and included captions describing the ice rink, other people with them, and features like the zamboni and timer lights. The field trip helped both experienced and inexperienced skaters have fun learning a new activity, and the teachers and parents provided support.

You helped make it FUN!
