1st graders didn’t let the cancellation of their outdoor field trip ruin their day! Instead, they turned it into a “stay field trip”! They did everything from listen to stories, make binoculars, went on an indoor scavenger hunt and even learned about animal traits and adaptations. It wasn't the day they expected, but they had a blast!
