Do you wish to take your class on a field trip and not have to pay for it? Imagine the word “free” and I’ve got a great way for this to happen. Instead of having to line up transportation, parents to assist, field trip permission forms, and the like, why not just take one from inside your classroom?
Students stay in the classroom and tour a multitude of sites and places via the web. Not only can it be a tour to a museum that is difficult to see because of expenses and distance, students can tour flowers, international places, or take field trips through a book. The possibilities are endless!
Do you need ideas? This fall I can visit your classroom and help you set up your field trip, work with you, and help you plan and find resources. Curious? Here are some links to whet your appetite:
