Now onto the trip!

Today we visited the Halton County Radial Museum in Milton to support our new unit of inquiry which is Who we are: On the move

On arrival:

It was quite an adventure, we started on on a streetcar with Mr. Gary who explained that it was 95 years old and run by electricity!

Inside

We witnessed how they power the streetcar using wires.

It took us to the museum with several types of streetcars, and subway carts...even one from Chicago.

This was inside one of the subway carts!!!!

Mr. Gary also explained to us that since we are learning about migration that people usually used ships and boats. He showed us the carts that transport people with all their luggage and showed us some vintage suitcases.

We also got to explore other locomotives, and modes of transportation.

When we came back to school we organised our IB portfolio binders by identifying and putting in our work that we feel we worked the hardest on, the best on, and what we can improve on.
