Home Depot Field Trip

Last Wednesday, Ethan's class went to Home Depot to learn about pulleys, friction, inventory and merchandise. I got to go along and it was tons of fun. They were given a kit and were able to build a spice rack, which Ethan loved doing. Then they were shown around the place and got to go in back and see how a fork lift works. His class is composed of 7 girls and 15 boys, so you can imagine the kinds of questions they asked (mostly the questions dealt with blowing things up). I thought it was curious that most of the parents who showed up for this field trip were men!
