Page Turners: Reading & Adventure Club

Page Turners went to the International Spy Museum in Washington, D.C.  At the museum, we went on a wild & dangerous mission!  Page Turners had their first experience with spy equipment; students also learned about the history of spies and their respective cultures.  The experience began with a mission called “Operation spy!”  This activity presented an opportunity for students to take on the persona of a spy.  Then, students went on a journey to discover the realities and myths in the world of secret agents/spies.  The students were thrilled to participate mentally and physically.  With the help of our charismatic tour guide, Page Turners were able to 'travel' to different time periods and countries within the museum.  We crawled through actual air vents and even hung from a skyscraper!  (The skyscraper was a simulation with varying wind speeds and height levels.)  I wish I could share pics/videos of our spy mission - but that kind of goes against the whole 'being a spy' thing LOL.  The Spy Museum was truly unforgettable!
