3rd Grade Field Trip


  THE THIRD GRADe FIELD TRIP

For the third grade field trip we went to The Connecticut Historical Society and The Old State House. They are both in Hartford.

We learned why we are called the nutmeg state. One reason is good, one is bad . The good one is that there were a couple of peddlers that sold a lot of nutmeg. As time went on there were   more and more peddlers.

The bad reason is that peddlers sold fake nutmeg that was wood. People bought it and when they put it on food they were eating wood.         

The lady guiding us sent around a nutmeg and asked if it was fake or not . It was fake. It was made of wood.

When we went to The Old State House where we renacted the story of the   Charter oak. Then we did a scavenger hunt. after that we got to dress up! finilly it was time to go back to school. it was a great field trip and i hope third grade can have another!
