On Monday, October 3rd, I took our 4th and 5th graders on a field trip to the MOSH.  The MOSH is the Museum of Science and History in Jacksonville, FL.

The students had a great time investigating the exhibits, exploring the hands-on fun stuff, and watching the animals.  We also took part in two science shows while there.

Our first show, “No Bones About It”, introduced the students to the bones of our bodies.  The students played games, and were fascinated by the various bone structures of several vertebrates.

“No Bones About It” was fun, but our second show was definitely    the coolest!  The students had a fantastic time exploring the four states of matter during “What’s the Matter?”

I mean whenever fire and electricity are involved it’s going to be a BIG hit!!!

After spending the morning at the museum, we headed down to the park and ate our picnic lunch by the water.
