The Field Trip to the Palace of Fine Arts

Wednesday October 14 ,2009 the upper class at Hillwood Academic Day School went on a field trip to the Palace of Fine Arts to watch Chamber Theater's Production of these short stories: The Tell -Tale Heart, The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, The Monkey's Paw, The Necklace, and The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County (see Rubina's post with a video showing Mrs. Schmitt celebrating this story).

First the whole class walked all the way to the Palace of Fine Arts. It took us 20 minutes to walk all the way there. When we arrived we have to wait in long line. When the wait was done we have to wait for the shows done. After all the wait was done we watch The Tell-Tale Heart then we watch The Legend of Sleepy Hollow.

Later we have to wait 10 min. for the actors to change clothing for the other act. When the break was done we watch The Monkey's paw then The Necklace last we watch The Jumping Frog of Calaveras County.

When the plays was done we walked all the back to school it was tiring. Finally we ate pizza to celebrate Lance's 10 birthday.
