Coast to coast, our 8th Grade group is heading to the east side to experience American history and culture. This blog serves as our academic mobile journal of our adventure.

This is the Jefferson Memorial. It was built in honor of Thomas Jefferson. At his feet are books, a compass, and crops. This is because he was a farmer, aan architect, and very educated. He also invented french fries and ice cream. History.
After a year of fund raising and anticipation, our East Coast Trip is finally upon us. We are a group of 8th grade students from San Diego, California. This may seem like a vacation but its actually an academic field trip. Since we are missing our regular classes back at school, we have to do an assignment. This blog is it. Our chaparone group will moblog daily via cellphone to connect our school learning with the adventure we are about to partake.
