Considering the current budget
crisis most school districts face, the lack of district provided field
trip transportation, and our push for parent/family involvement, I
developed a field trip package which students can enjoy with their
families. The trip sites are located in Deaborn where I plan to
teach, but the idea can serve all districts. Third grade
curriculum addresses communities. Visiting Dearborn community
sites used to be a third-grade field trip. Due to economic
issues, the activity has been cut from the curriculum, but it does not
have to be stolen from students' lives. Students can experience
the sites as an extracurricular activity. As a teacher, I would
start with a letter home. Click on the Parent Letter for
information regarding the activity.
