Day Five: Yorktown
Today was a glorious finish to what has been an adventurous and exciting week! The weather was incredible and the students were fully engaged in the learning opportunities!
The first stop on our itinerary was the Yorktown Battlefield
 |
| These ladies have us covered! |
 |
| Our Tour Guide was very knowledgeable and a great stroyteller! |
 |
| He also kept us moving and took us out on the battlefield - Way Cool! |
 |
| The reality of the sacrifices made and the lives lost was starting to sink in. |
 |
| Mr. Ingram is standing in front of Redoubt 10 where the Americans layed seige to Yorktown. |
 |
| And just as if on cue, a beautiful bald eagle soared overhead and took our breathe away. |
 |
Next stop, Victory Monument and the Official Group shot.
You would think by Friday we would have this process down. Riddle: How many teachers and administrators does it take to organize fifth grade students for a picture :) |
 |
| Take 1: Students, teachers and Mr. Ingram |
 |
| Take 2: Students, chaperons, and Mr. Ingram |
 |
| Tah Dah! |
 |
We are so thankful for our bus driver, Joseph and our Colonial Connectins tour guide, Garmann.
They have both been with us before and it is our hope that they will be with us again.
We have made them honorary members of the Geneva family! |
 |
Next we moved on to the Yorktown Victory Center and an afternoon of hands-on learning. We have lots of great pictures and here are a few.........
