Adam Gidwitz came to our school one day to talk to us about his books! He wrote grim fairytales and other fictional books. He didn’t talk all about books though, he had a sense of humor and talk to us about how he was in quick sand!  He also talked about a spy book he wrote. I’m pretty sure it was about a kid during the the nazis and he was on a train leaving his home and he heard these voices from little people on his shoulder that only he could see. It was partly based on his family friend who lived in Germany and was in the time of world war 2. The book is called Max in the House of Spies.

Last Friday my grade went to the planetarium in Chappel Hill. Since the Field Trip didn’t take all day, we had our first 2 classes, men were history and then Spanish. Then we got on the busses and it was around a 20 minute drive.

Once we got there we went into different groups and walked around the UNC campus. Then we went into this building where there were a bunch of science exploring areas kind of like the life and science museum.

Then we ate lunch outside. After we all ate we went to this science show which was fun! The science guy showed cool experiments about the 3 laws off motion. He also showed cool things about liquid nitrogen.

After the show, we went to the planetarium which was cool! We saw one of there “movies” about mars. After that we went back on the busses to carpool.
