My trip to the field museum was great! My trip to the field museum was great because I learned lots of things. One of the many things that I learned was that back in the 1800’s Africans used to be free people and could do what ever they wanted but then they ended up in slavery. People sold Africans to other human beings to work for little or no money. They were beaten with whips and treated very badly. I also learned that back in the day, early Americans had animals that roamed and looked like the things on the movie ice age. We watched videos about how people made sculptures from wood and how they made saws. My group saw a mummy and a house that people lived in. The house had no doors or windows and it was very small. It was so small that there was not enough room for a bed to fit. The best thing of all to me was when we saw the biggest dinosaur ever. We saw “Sue” the dinosaur. She was very big! Michael Jordan couldn’t reach her. I learned a lot of new things and had a great time at the field museum.
