Case: Field Trips My school only allows us to go on one to two trips a year. I feel as though real-world experiences are essential to make connections while learning. My principal says because we are Title I we can not ask for much money from the parents. Are there any other solutions other than fundraising? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) Depending on the school, or district you are in, they may have the Great American Teach-In (GATI) come. This allows the students to learn about different jobs around your community. The students are actually able to ask questions about the jobs, as well as learn. Depending on the schedule, some students in middle schools may have 2 or 3 different people they meet, while elementary students may have a few more. Sometimes the amount of time for each person is short, however the students still get to see a variety of things. They could see a service dog with their trainer, someone in the military, or even a woodworker. The people who come usually bring different objects that they may use or even examples of work they've done before. The best part is, the students are more than likely the ones moving around, so they can burn some energy as they walk to the different locations. |
