Learning About Hospitals!

Our class took a fieldtrip to our local Mayo Clinic hospital today.  We learned about how one gets admitted to the hospital, as well as about the human body.  We visited the lab to see what blood looks like under a microscope.  We also saw a newborn baby.  We got to go inside an ambulance and learn about what EMTs do.  Everyone had a great time and learned a lot.  Thank you to our local hospital for providing this great experience for our first graders!
