We planned this field study to relate directly to our units in Social Studies on Past and Present and also our unit on Maps. We also have been talking about retelling stories and the play was a perfect way to do this as well! The students even looked at maps of Charlotte and the light rail Blue Line to plan our trip. Below, you can even see pictures of the students using the maps provided by the train to follow along with the stops. We also used our math skills to count the number of stops we had to make during our trip. The students had great theatre etiquette while we were at the performance, and they all seemed to enjoy the play!
