School Field Trip & Swine Flu

First off, NO ONE has swine flu in my class. They're all perfectly healthy at recess and sick during tests.

We had our fourth grade field trip to Sully Plantation Wednesday last week. Sully is a old plantation where Confederate Civil War General Robert E. Lee's uncle lived. We basically went there to learn about early plantation life. It was a pretty neat field trip.

Before we went on the tour the guide was asking the classes different questions about what kind of plants they grow on plantations and what kind of animals they raise. One of her questions was "What do we get from pigs?" Many students raised their hands responding with things like bacon, ham, etc... One of the students in the group raised their hand and said, "SWINE FLU!" Ummm, okay. NEXT!

I guess kids watch the news too.
