Elizabeth’s Nature’s Classroom Post

In the Middle School, there are 3 grades, 6th 7th and 8th. The 6th and 7th grade go to a place in Massachusetts called Nature’s Classroom. Nature’s Classroom is almost like a big fun camp in the woods. You do all sorts of fun activities and learn how to be nice to nature. Since I am in 6th grade I went to Nature’s Classroom this year.  

 

I had known about this trip since the beginning of the school year.  I remember my brother had gone so I kind of knew what would happen. He told me that it was lots of fun! The 6th and the 7th grade had met a couple of times and talked about what would happen. Since the 7th grade had been the year before they told us what it was like. They had all kinds of crazy fun stories to tell. When they were talking about it they said all these things to do and not to do which was very helpful.

 

Finally, it was the day to go to Nature’s Classroom! Of course we had had a perfectly warm winter and the night before we were supposed to go we had a huge snow storm. But it did not affect our plans because we went anyway, although we left 3 hours late! When we got there I could already tell I was going to have a fun time! Over the course of 4 days we played awesome games and we had fun outdoor winter activities to do.  At the end of the 4 days I was sad to go but I remembered I would come back next year!!

Summer-By Anna

This summer I went to camp hillcroft. I have been going to camp hillcroft for seven years. I really enjoyed seeing all my friends and going to really fun activities. One of my favorite activities was climb. At climb I went on a huge zip line and it was really scary but really fun. I had alot of fun with my best friends Kayla, Bella and Alexa.

I also went to six flags with my friend Jane and it was fun but we did not get to go on a lot of rides because it was packed. The car ride there was really long but Jane and I managed to entertain ourselves. We got to go on a really big wooden roller coaster called the thunderbolt and it was really fun Because Jane and I freaked out for no reason.

I really enjoyed going to atlantic beach north Carolina. I went with my best friend Mariah and my parents. The car ride was twelve hours and we watched a lot of movies and listened to music. I was very bored and when we got there I was half asleep, it was one in the morning. While we were there we went to a really cool aquarium. At the aquarium I played rock paper scissors with a scuba diver that was cleaning the huge fish tank. We also went to a restaurant called Surf-ari and it was really good I ordered mahi-mahi which is the fish of the island. It was so rich with yummy flavor.

When I went to the Dutchess County Fair I went with my friend Mariah we went on a ride called the zipper. The zipper/cage is an upside down ferris wheel but its a straight line not a circle. When you get to the top you do a really fast, scary flip. While I was there I ran into my friends Sally and Jane.
