Our New Outdoor Classroom!

On Oct.25, we had the grand opening of our Outdoor Classroom. Our school won this classroom in a contest by Majesta. It was a contest where you went on a website, signed in and voted every day for whichever school you wanted to win the classroom. We were really excited to see the finished structure, so we'll tell you about the ceremony!

 Friday was the day of the Outdoor Classroom opening. Everybody was chattering with excitement! Mr. Blucher, the principal, tapped his microphone to get us to stop talking so people could do their speeches. He said "Good morning" and introduced the company workers, the ones that would be doing the speeches. In one of the speeches, they introduced the mascot! He was a tree. I remember his name. It was Red Spruce!

They talked about how we were the 4th school to get the Outdoor Classroom.

We had to wait until the end of the day (almost) for our turn at the stations, but it was worth it the stations were out of this world a.k.a awesome! The first station our group got was to make fake fossils, but they looked real. The second station was building bird houses, but nobody really got theirs done. The third and final station was making a family tree. On your paper, there were some boxes in a tree that you could draw your family in.

Our favorite station was the fake fossils because you got to look at different sea shells and choose which style you wanted your fossil to be. It was really cool! When it dry's its like a real rock fossil! I didn't believe it! it was unbelievable it looked like a real fossil! well You can see that they look real the pic is right there.

Can't what for you to see the outdoor classroom!!!!!!
That's what we did at the grand opening I hope you likes our recount thanks!
