Field Trips Too!!!!!!

Around 10 in the morning we got to leave the confines of our classroom and escape into the public (a bunch of teachers on the loose, someone wasn't thinking).














We ventured to the Anchorage School District Science Center located in their warehouse.















Wow!!!!!! I had never imagined the supplies for a school science program on this scale.








Just think, thousands of tubs full of hands-on science supplies for kids grades K-6. They supply everything from sand and dirt to scales, motors, books, magnifying glasses - pretty much anything you can imagine ever needing for a science lesson, they had it on their shelves.
















Technicians work year round to inventory and restock the kits and make sure they are ready to go when teachers need them. During the busy months of the school year they are working overtime to make sure students and teachers have everything they need.
