Today I had the pleasure of chaperoning a middle school field trip that was designed to help the kids read a map and find their way around the City of Chicago. They were given a sheet of clues that included north-south and east-west coordinates using the Chicago numbering system, and then had to answer questions about a specific area, or take pictures of certain places. It was fun and exhausting, and sometimes a bit challenging, trying to keep my group of five eighth grade girls focused on the task at hand. They were all good sports and managed to answer more than 20 clues throughout the day.
We ended over by the Picasso, where I smiled when I saw the pond had been changed orange for Halloween.
It was such a fun day!
