Haley's Boat Fieldtrip



On Friday I volunteered to help out with Haley's class fieldtrip. We got to ride on a board that was called a floating labatory. We put out a net, and all the kids helped pull it up. Haley was the "stuffer", so she stuffed the net into a container (which was not as easy as it sounds). Then the kids got to be scientist and investigate what they caught. They actually pulled up a huge sting ray, and it was a big drama there was a little bit. until they threw it overboard. The sting ray killed most of the stuff they caught, but not the lobster. That thing was pretty big and I told Haley I would give her a quarter if she touched it. She waited until they lady pulled it out and then touched it's antanea, which I think is cheating, but I gave her the quarter anyway.
