Every Wednesday we go on a little field trip to the park. For the first forty minutes each class works on a sense assignment, the difficulty of which of course depends on their group. My kids generally have to write five sentences about what they sense (for instance, this week was Smell) and then draw corresponding pictures. After that, they have another forty minutes to run around the playground before we pack up and make the mile-long trek to the middle school where we eat lunch every day.
