I love field trip day!

Field trips at school are the BEST!

Field trips mean wearing jeans on days other than Fridays.
Field trips mean getting out of the classroom, which so rarely happens.
Field trips mean less papers to grade from that day.
Field trips mean an opportunity for longer than a 20-minute lunch "hour".
Field trips mean that our kids actually like school and learning for that day!

Now back to the usual routine of worksheets, lessons, and rushing to get the most amount of learning in. It is Assessment Season, after all!

Pin It!

I just went on a field trip with the kindergarteners to the city zoo yesterday and I found it to be the most exhausting experience ever. Do you think it has to do with the gae of the kids? Ask the K teachers and see if I'm just a wimp!

(P.S. I'm going to post a blog about the Guate zoo soon...if you are an animal lover you should read it b/c it is hearbreaking how sad the conditions are for the animals here. Not progressive like the U.S....www.tecoteca.blogspot.com)
