Mrs. Gregory's Transitions class went on a community-based instructional trip to Food Lion in Aylett. The assistant store manager and a store associate took the class on a tour through all the departments and shared unique information about each one. The students made connections from their Grocery Store Unit to the real experience. The students also shopped and paid for supplies to make Trail Mix, which they will distribute during their coffee cart service this week. Huge thank you to Food Lion for accommodating the class and for the treat bags! It was a great time!
