Fifth Graders Skate

image

On March 17, 2010, the fifth grade class went on a trip to the Clary Anderson Arena to ice skate. We walked all the way from the school to the ice rink. Many kids surprised themselves, because they didn?t know they could actually skate. I was one of the people that didn?t think they could skate. In fact, I found out I could speed skate! We were on the ice for an hour and a half and at the end we took a group picture. It was very fun and riveting. On the way back many people?s feet were sore and they didn?t think they could make it back, but they did.

The Montclair Art Museum

    MAM (The Montclair Art museum) was very colorful.It had lots of paintings and sculptures. They had a whole exhibit on Native Americans. They had everything from masks to mocassins. There were abstract paintings, realistic paintings, and landscapes, and some pictures by George Innis.
    George Innis was a famous painter who lived in Montclair. Some of his paintings were realistic and some were abstract.
    This trip also included a hands-on aspect. The tour guide told us about landscapes. Then we drew pictures in an art room and then we painted the pictures with water colors.

UN Fifth Grade Field Trip
 
   On October 22, the fifthgraders went to the United Nations headquarters in New York City. The walls there are covered with pictures of diignitiaries . We saw a gun that was turned into a guitar. The United Nations has various countries that unite to create peace all over the world. One of the things we saw was the general assemby room. There are 192 countries participating. One of the things about the tour guides is that they all have different cultures and speak different  languages. For example: German, Chinese, and French.

        The Mixed Up Files Of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler

    The fifth graders went to see a play. The play was about two kids who ran away to The Metropolitan Museum of Art.  They ran away because the kids weren?t appreciated at home and they wanted to make a difference.  When they got to the MET, they could not leave because of a beautiful statue called Angel.

There were only 4 characters: The man of many hats, Claudia Kincaid, Jamie Kincaid,and Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler.There were also nice costumes.
