On May 29,
2009 the fourth grade went to Mackinac Island. We past the Grand Hotel.
The Grand Hotel is big. My favorite part was when we went to the
butterfly house. A butterfly landed on my shoulder. It was cool. James
was one of my tour girds. He was funny. I was in the Haske’s group.
Mackinac Island was so fun. ~Kassie
This year fourth
grade went to Mackinac Island. My favorite thing was the Mackinac
Bridge. I have never been to the Mackinac Bridge. The Mackinac Bridge
was awesome. It is the second biggest bridge in the world. The Mackinac
Bridge was cool. ~McKayla H
On May 29, 2009 Mrs.
Bennett’s fourth grade class went to Mackinac Island. We left at 5:15 am
and got back at around 9:00 at night. At Mackinac Island we saw a lot of
historical land marks there. One of my favorite things was Fort
Mackinac. I liked Fort Mackinac because it had a really neat building
with a reenactment of the war and it had a gunshot sound affect. I also
liked the fort because they had people dressed up like soldiers that
shot guns but instead of using bullets they used gun powder. Another
Thing that was my favorite was Arch Rock. Arch Rock had a rock on the
side that looked like a face. One more thing that was my favorite was
the Wings of Mackinac butterfly house. I saw a few Monarch butterflies
and a few Blue Morpho butterflies. After our tours we got to do what we
wanted for a couple of hours. Then after that we went to the ferry dock
and took a Shepler’s ferry back. Those are some things we did at
Mackinac Island. ~Kelly |
On May
29th, 2009 the Onekama third and fourth grade went to
Mackinac Island. We had to load the bus at 5:15 in the morning. It took
us 3 and a half hours to get there. At 9:20 we loaded the ferry. I rode
on the top. When we got there we went on a carriage tour. Our tour guide
told us about the history of the island. We also went to the Wings Of
Mackinac, a butterfly house. After our carriage tour, we went to Fort
Mackinac. We saw a lot of historic buildings. After we went to the Fort,
Grace, Kassidy and I had lunch at Marquette Park. After we had lunch, we
went to the haunted house with Lauryn. It was so dark that Lauryn’s
mom had to use her cell phone light to lead us out! After the Haunted
House, we went bike riding. I had an accident. I was trying to pass
Grace on her right and she rounded a little too tight and I fell off my
bike hard! My favorite part of Mackinac Island was the ferry ride back.
The waves were so high so we got soaked! I had an excellent time at
Mackinac Island. ~Kiara
On May
29th 2009 the Third and Fourth grade classes went to Mackinac
Island. It took 4 hours to get there when we got there we went over the
bridge and back. After that we went on the ferry to the Island we got
soaked on the way there. Once we got to the island we took a carriage
tour to the butterfly house which was actually called Wings of Mackinac.
My favorite part was when we were at the fort they fired the cannon.
Then we got 3 hours of free time on the island we went to the haunted
house the magic shop and the fudge shop’s. Then after that we went on
the ferry back to the mainland and on the way the whole other side got
soaked. The Mackinac Island field trip was my favorite trip ever.

On May 29,
2009 the fourth and third grades went to Mackinac Island. One of my
favorite parts of the trip was when the carriage stopped at Arch Rock.
It was interesting because it is an arch and rocks never form that way.
Another one of my favorites was fort because it shows how soldiers lived
long ago in wars. Of course we got famous Mackinac Island fudge. On the
way back we rode on Shepler’s and got soaked! ~Kyle |
Every year the fourth
graders go to Mackinac Island. This year I went. I had a lot of fun. My
first favorite part was when Grace, her mom, Kiara, her dad, lauryn, her
dad, and finally my mom and I. My second favorite thing is the ferry
ride back. The reason I liked it is because I sat is back of the ferry
and I got very wet. ~K.W. |
