Magic Wings – Great day trip!
September 11, 2009 | Posted in: Class Updates
Today, while finishing our first story, we enjoyed a vivid illustration of a high rise’s roof filled with colorful flowers. (The story was about a girl who loves gardening and created a floral masterpiece just to make her uncle smile.) We thought of our own experiences that this setting reminded us of. Many students remembered Mark Twain’s elaborate greenhouse that remains flourishing in his house today. I also remembered another field trip I had gone on a few years ago: a trip to Magic Wings in southern Massachusetts. What a neat place! It is a butterfly conservatory, and once I got over the initial (uncomfortable) sensation of having butterflies zooming around my head, I really enjoyed the beautiful foliage and the unique experience. It isn’t too far away and would be a great day trip on a dull weekend or over a school vacation. Highly recommended!
