Our first field trip!

Our first field trip was a lot of fun! We started off at Herr's chip factory for the tour! We couldn't take any pictures on the tour (unfortunately), but we tried to get a few at the tour center.

 Here are all of the third graders! We had so much fun spending time with the third graders from the West Lampeter Campus!

 And one more of the happy troopers! We had warm potato chips fresh off the line and enjoyed seeing where all of the pretzels, popcorn, corn chips and other potato chips were made! It made us all hungry for lunch!

 This the the mascot- "Chip-Herr". They all call him Chipper!

 We headed to Nottingham park for some lunch. Thank you Lord for holding off the rain so we could enjoy some time outside! (Gabriel, Zavier, Timothy, Logan and Nathan)

 Justin, Zac, Steven and Johnny enjoying their food and getting ready to play!

 Mrs. Robinson was one of our chaperones. It was so great to have her along today. (with Kelly and Jessica)

 Caila, Makenzie, Kenzie, Anna, Janae and Stephanie- getting a little goofy

 The students spotted a really neat toad on the tree trunk!

 We all had to stop and take a look at it!

 We had a scavenger hunt with our new Pen Pals! This year we are going to be working on our letter writing skills. In order to practice, we will be writing letters to the other third graders! Today we all had a chance to meet our Pen Pals and get to know them a little bit. (Timothy and Justin)

 One of the things they needed to find was someone who had a July birthday. The students couldn't find ANYONE (go figure). They even asked our bus driver! (Janae and Logan)

 Without writing spaces, the students were getting pretty creative on how they wrote their answers down. (Zavier and Anna)

 The Pen Pals worked hard together to accomplish everything on the list! (Jessica and Matthew)

 Despite this being the first time some of them met, the students worked really well together!I was so proud of them! (Ben and Stephanie)

 We ended with a name game where the students had to repeat everyone's name. They did SO WELL!

Overall, we had a wonderful time! We are looking forward to writing letters with the 3rd graders from West Lampeter and also looking forward to another field trip sometime soon!

Enjoy your Herr's Chips!
