On a special field trip in the magic school bus, Ms. Frizzle's class learns first hand about different kinds of rocks and the formation of the earth.
This is a great and fun book for young children! The Magic School Bus books are always great for lessons and activities within the classroom. The book is a cute book about bats, great for any science lesson.
This book was excellent and has great pictures. I would suggest reading it around Halloween because they story is about bats. There are many neat facts about bats in the book as well. As a fun activity, you could have your class draw and color their own bat.
Mrs. Frizzle was having a parents meeting and the children were setting up ad no one could find Mrs. Frizzle. When the parents showed up so did Mrs. Frizzle who took the parents out to a scary house and let them act like bats while the children thought she wa a vampire and got into the bus and got turned into bats then they swooped int to stop her from making their parents victims.
Ms. Frizzle takes the magic school bus to a haunted mansion to learn all about bats.
