Here are a few of the items that a 2nd Grade teacher might take on a hike with her class: guidebooks to help identify items they might find along the trail and a measuring device to see how long the trail is. Those books sure came in handy and the kids all fought over who got to use the measuring wheel. I can't remember how far we hiked, but they wrote it down and applied it to their math lessons in the classroom...
Last month we hiked up Berry's Ledge with the 2nd grade class. This was a wonderful opportunity to show you my town from above. Keep checking back over the next few days for more scenes of West Paris...

I really enjoyed the horse series . . . loved the feed bags. I've been hiking with my cub scouts but we never thought to take a wheel and measure . . . that would make for an engaging math lesson.
