Ship Museum

The Kindergarten and Preschool room from Morgan Rothschild Academy had a very exciting day on November 7th,  we went to the ship factory! Everyone arrived at school where they promptly handed off their packed lunches and went to the bathroom. Then we all loaded up into different Morgan Rothschild Academy school buses and headed off! When we arrived the children were very excited to see that the top of the building was a funny shape. Once inside we were able to walk around and see mini models of different ships. One of the most popular ones was the Titanic. Toby from the Morgan Rothschild Academy Kindergarten classroom was especially excited because he loves the Titanic! Next the children got to go on a life size replica of a Chinese Sailing Vessel. Everyone from Morgan Rothschild Academy was very excited to see all the ropes for the sails and to be able to look down into the inside of the ship. We then went onto see an engine room! There were so many different pipes and engines! After that we got to the main steering room of a ship, this was very exciting for all the students at Morgan Rothschild Academy because they got to steer the ship into virtual waters. They also got to touch all the buttons and be a captain!  We then got to go and make our own mini model Viking boats! This was a difficult task but the students powered through! After that we ate lunch and got back on the Morgan Rothschild Academy school buses to go back to school! It was a very exciting day!
