Zane's class had a field trip to a bog today. It was a beautiful day for it - sunny and warm - while we were there. (I stayed after the field trip to cover lunch before coming home. I walked in the door and about 3 minutes later, it started pouring. It rained the rest of the day. Best timing ever.)
Zane was awesome. There was one portion of the field trip where the kids were supposed to sit quietly for 5 minutes and observe what they see, hear, and feel. The other kids observed "quietly" by whispering loudly and running from one thing to another. Zane chose a spot a bit apart, sat down, and tried to actually observe. Him: "I think that it's because i want to be a scientist when i grow up." (He didn't like the part about having to actually write down his observations, though. Paperwork! Blech!)
