We want to share our appreciation for the financial support we received so that our class could be part of the B.C. Mobile Museum experience.  Thank you, Ms. Gabas, for organizing this in-school field trip for our school.  We were very interesed and curious.  Here are some of our thoughts!

Andre – I was grateful that I learned about Indigenous houses of the past.   Bryan – I liked how Mr. Hardie explained the story of the artifacts.  Alana – I liked the red cedar woven basket with the bell.  Sunehra – I liked how Mr. Hardie told us about his Indigenous ancestors and how they stripped the cedar tree bark.  Lucas – I liked touching the animal skins.  Fadhili – I liked the animal furs, especially the Skunk and the Minx.  Darien – I enjoyed wearing the cedar hat.  Claire – I enjoyed touching the Sasquatch puppet and counting how many Sasquatch characters showed up on the screen. I also liked the obsidian; it had orange bits in it.  Saiya – I liked  touching the fur.  Anthony – I appreciated how Mr. Hardie passed items around and I really liked holding the deer antler.  Skylar – I learned that different animal furs feel different, they have different textures.  Ella – I liked the animal skins because they were super soft.  Megan – I liked learning about the bow and arrows because they were so interesting. I didn’t think they were real.  Albert – I liked the fishing tool with the bone hook that we got to touch.  Chloe – I think it was cool that there were stone beads. Samar – I liked the soft Minx.

Students listened intently to Mr. Hardie, observed with their eyes, browsed with curiousity asking questions throughout their wander and had the chance to touch some artifacts.
