My favorite part of our field trip to the State House was paging. The reason this was my favorite part is because I was able to deliver messages. The way students page and know where to go is by looking at a switch board with buttons. On the representatives' desks there is a button that they press when they have a message and their number shows up on the switch board. A page looks at the number on the switch board and strides to that seat. The way a page finds the seat is by counting how many rows up and how many seats in. Next the page walks to that seat and gives them the message. In the beginning a page may be nervous, but then it is FUN!!!
