SUPSHIP
in Bath, Maine
People do interesting things at
SUPSHIP.
|
Thank you Captain
Hepburn for inviting Owney and our class to visit Supship.
We wanted to know what kind of work people do there.
|

|
|

|
Cmd. Watson asked
us to show our badges we can go into SUPSHIP. He gave us our
badges at school . We got to keep them.
|
|
Captain Hepburn
is welcoming us to SUPSHIP. He is telling us what we are
going to do and see.
|

|
|

|
We are going to
pretend to be engineers and test ships.
|
|
We are building
our ships. They have sails.
|

|
|

|
This is the test
to see if they will sail to the other
end.
|
|
The boys are
trying to get there sails right.
|

|
|

|
We thought this
was great. We are talking to someone in Mississippi. She can
see us and we can see her. There is a map to show where we
both are. We asked her what the weather was like in
Mississippi.
|
|
This is the
computer that we use to show different parts of the
room.
|

|
|
We are learning
how they make contracts. We are planning a contract for
bicycles. We are just pretending.
|

|
|

|
We are
negotiating the contract. We tell what we will pay for the
kind of bicycle we want. They try to talk us into a
different one.
|
|
We are learning
about budgets. They find out what usually happens and plan
how much it will cost.
We are doing it with
M&Ms. First we have to sort them out by
color.
|

|
|

|
We are counting
M&M's to see if there are about the same number of brown
each time.
|
|
We colored in the
chart to see if it was about the same. It was about the
same. The cost should be about the same for things we
buy.
|

|
|

|
We are all in
front of SUPSHIP with the navy people who showed us around
and walked to and from school with us.
|
Thank you for inviting
us. We learned a lot. Some of us want to work at SUPSHIP when we grow
up.
