Gwinnett Braves Game a BIG Hit!

Today was one of the BEST trips Mrs. Welch has ever had the pleasure to be on!!!  Our students were excellent examples of fine, young children at Oakwood Elementary.

We began our journey singing the National Anthem. 

As we were leaving the field one of the Braves players gave Arturo a baseball!!!

We then went to our seats and watched some of the game.  Students were entertained with the games, chants, songs, and movie clips shared throughout the innings.

After we watched the game, we decided we needed to eat and get in the shade.  But as we were leaving,Chipper came into our section.  He was doing a variety of beats on a drum.  We echoed him with clapping our hands.  Before we went to lunch we got a high five from him!

After eating lunch, we checked out the vendors stands!  We discussed how their billboards and flyers were persuasive.  We also talked about how their attractive pictures and colors made us get interested in what they had to offer.  We got free pencils, coloring pages, and LOTS of coupons for things like Kraft cheese!  HOW NEAT!

One booth had animal furs and skulls for us to look at and explore.  We REALLY asked this vendor a lot of questions. :)

We spent our last few minutes watching a tied game.  We then ventured back home.

What an awesome day we had!  Thank you parents for allowing us this amazing, fun-filled experience!
