IPS/Butler University Laboratory School

Today was such a fun day! Visiting WISH-TV opened our eyes to what a studio is like and how a lot of people work together to put on a single show. We got the opportunity to take a tour of the studio and see where the team works while gathering the news. Then we went into the actual newsdesk and saw Randy Ollis, and other WISH-TV employees getting prepared for the Noon news. We learned about the green screen and were able to see ourselves on it! We also got to see the cameras that they use to film, and what was so cool was that they are robots! After we saw the studio we went upstairs to an observation room and watched the noon news come to life. The children loved watching the anchors read the teleprompter, and it was SO exciting to see Randy Ollis do his forecast!! After seeing the forecast, we headed downstairs and went to see another studio where there was a full kitchen! We were able to then take a class picture behind the newsdesk!

I was so proud of our friends today and thought they did such a nice job being respectful and staying engaged!

When we got back and discussed what we liked about the field trip or what we learned, and there were a lot of friends that shared that they loved and learned a lot about robots..maybe a provocation that we will explore next!

Now, the day was great, but then it got better because we celebrated Maddie, Jamari, and Miss Jeffrey’s birthdays! The children loved being able to eat cupcakes at the end of the day and really share the happiness and fun from the day!
