Christalite Methodist Home

Today, we went to the Christalite Methodist Home.  The home helps people who are homeless or need help. We went there to decorate Santa Hats with them. Everyone I decorated hats with was very friendly but some didn't speak english. There was one lady that had asked me for a bracelet that was on my wrist. I promised her that I would get her one too! I had a lot of fun being the teacher for a day and I bet everyone else had a fun time too.

It made me feel very good that I could help someone else feel happy and create something nice. I hope all the old people at the home had a good time with us. I would feel really happy if I were the old folks who got to create some awesome hats. 


I bet the old folks also had a good time listening to us sing. We sung "Feliz Navidad","Silent Night", "Jingle Bells" and  "We wish you a Merry Christmas ". They all clapped after we had finished each of our songs. When we were singing "We wish you a Merry Christmas" (Our last song) one of the old folks started swaying back and forth then everyone on stage did too!

I think this has been the greatest field trip ever so far this year! I really enjoyed it and I hope everyone else did too. I think the old folks had the best time out of all of us because they got to create that awesome hats!

  1. I agree Meaghan, it did feel good that we could make someone else happy by making Santa hats with them. I like how in the beginning you put down the story of that lady that wanted your "special bracelet." Which is were I came in to help with your "special bracelet." Great job on your reflection! It was really fun!
