Places to Visit

While I’m waiting on our new curriculum, I thought I would give you some suggestions of other activities you can enjoy. Keep in mind all of your time does not have to be spent in the classroom. However, you don’t want to get off schedule too often as children definitely learn more effectively with structure and consistency.
Go to:

The Library

The Zoo

The Science Center

Historical Places

The Planetarium

Downtown Square

Public Utilities

National Parks

Museums

The Theatre

These are just a few suggestions. I know not everyone has all of these places to visit but hopefully you have some of them in your area. I always count the actual time spent on the field trip as class hours. I also require a written paper the following day of what they experienced. Usually, it’s a brief synopsis of what they learned and enjoyed on the trip. I hope this was helpful.
