Day of the Dead

The idea I got from today was that just because someone dies doesn't mean you have to always be sad but it can also be a time to celebrate someone's life.

I came up with this idea when I experienced the way Day of the Dead is celebrated. Today I got to taste different kinds of food such as the sugar scone and Day of the Dead bread, which was delicious.

This effects me because now when this day comes I won't only feel sad for my family members who have died but I will think of them and talk about all the wonderful memories I have of them.

Freddie's trip to the "Museum of Natural History"

An Idea I had from my trip was that it was very normal for the Neanderthals not to wear clothing or shoes.
I came to this idea because when I went to visit the display the Neanderthals had no type of covering on their bodies.
This affects me because if we were to go out looking like they did we would get arrested.

My Trip to Pratt Institute

Today my class and I visited Pratt Institute. When we got there they took us to the auditorium and someone spoke to us about a special program. The program is about volunteering your time in helping children. She told us that when someone volunteers there time they can get a job and even a scholorship to that school or another school. I may think about doing this when I get older.

Freddie's Summer!
