Field Trip to Wood TV 8
with the Yahoo Group-Grand Rapids Area Homeschoolers
November 25, 2008
One of the gals in the group organized a field trip to a TV station, which she said was hard to convince them to let a group of homeschoolers come! Hard to believe that! Obviously not very experienced with homeschoolers. Afterward they said we were one of the best behaved group of kids they've had - that is not hard to believe!
Above - they demonstrated the green screen and below is how the kids looked on the TV. Anything with green on the computer would put the image on too, so the girls disappeared a little bit.
We got to see them do a live update of news and weather
and then they did a weather demonstration and teaching time for the kids. It was a neat experience.
The weather center on our way out.
