Our Trip To ECHO!

Fourth and Fifth graders took a trip to the ECHO Center in Burlington to examine Native American artifacts. We learned about how historians look at artifacts to understand elements of culture and were able to look at and touch several replicas that gave us a glimpse into Abenaki life long ago. We also had time to check out the museum! I had a small group of students that I walked around with, so there are more pictures of those students, apologies!
My little group; we're watching the coin looper! We have Jayden, Lily, Eddie, Thomas, and Nora. I spent quite a while trying to figure out who the little blonde was and finally remembered she was a younger child who joined us for a little bit! 




We spent some time at the weather station...













Behind the scenes.


The "calm before the storm…" 

I love this picture of all of them!

Ben, Eli, unidentified small child, Carter, and Julia at the sand box.

And here are our Weather Reports!
Weather Report 1
Weather Report 2
Weather Report 3

Again, sorry to have limited variation in students for the pictures. I was too into the artifact activity to take any pictures and then was with my little group for the rest of the trip. More good pictures of everyone to come!
