Miss Myers I have a superior argument on why field trips are good and why we should do more. A lot of museums are free to get into and free trips saves money which at the same time equals free education for a whole class it’s a win win. Most of the information in museums is found by professionals in that specific field which gives you more of a in depth experience than what a normal teacher would be able to give you.
Field trips can also help with the enforcement of rules inside the school which makes a teachers job easier. This is just the tip of the iceberg on why field trips can help students and teachers inside and outside of the school.
A lot of places you go are actually free because there are some nice people in this world. Parks are a good place for recreational activity that is fun and enjoyable for most children. Of course not all kids will like one activity so sometimes you need to have a variety of things you can do on that trip. Soccer is a good activity because it requires running across long distances which is a cardiovascular exercise and It can help a lot of kids with their leg strength. Basketball is

Kids will definitely behave better to go on field trips because everyone wants to take the day off and go to a museum where you will be shushed if you say one word. People will be much quieter in class because they like field trips I think. Students would be more respectful because they like to go on field trips too. Students will follow school rules because people like field trips so they can’t break rules. People will get better grades for behaving and being respectful which causes them to not go to a community college when they’re older. These were my reasons on why we should go on field trips more and get a better education in
Everyone has different points of views, feelings, reactions, and etcetera. People handle things in different ways. I read the story “Field Trip” by Tim O’brien. The story has emotions, but yet it’s still very settle.
Knowledge, its source and truthfulness have been under question for a long time. People have always wondered what exactly constitutes facts and if there are any defining laws that can be attributed to all knowledge or information available in the world. Many philosophers speculated on how information can be interpreted according to its falsity or truthfulness, but have not come to definite conclusions. Edmund Gettier has provided one of the key pieces in understanding and trying to figure out what knowledge really is.
In general, the field experience assignment has been a learning and growing experience for me. While watching Ms. Hines deal with her class I’ve realized a few aptitudes I’ll be utilizing in the future. She has taught me how to manage a classroom, how to implement good behavior, and how to make a safe and comfortable classroom for the
I have to say, that incorporating the science during my visit to Six Flags made the experience more fulfilling on an intellectual level. The amusement park showed us, students, that physics is in our daily lives. A majority of the rides, showed many skills and ideas of physics, and everything from beginning to end of structuring the rides.With this experience, we can conclude that with the equations learned, we can determine anything from problems on a paper, to hands on experiences at Six
Kids wanting to come to school will help them get better grades. Also students wanting to come to school could help with attendance overall for the school. Having a soccer team does require more driving for their parents which requires more time during their day, but the kids could stay after school and could bring snacks or even better the school could provide snack for the students. Staying after school is good for parents who work late in the day. Instead of the parents worrying about getting afterschool care for their children and leaving them with people they don’t really know or even might not trust, parents could sign them up for the after school soccer program where they know that their kids are safe and with staff and coaches at the
Field Day was created by Marian in an attempt to teach students things like leadership and collaboration. Collaboration is considered one of the best practices
...s a different perspective of the world around them. Studying what makes countries different and their different backgrounds will also help students form credible opinions of history, economy, and politics.
They also look to see how active in the community they are. Summer break gives students a chance to get involved or lend a hand. Agricultural students may attend the county fairs. Students interested in forien languages may be interested in visit other contries to learn about their culture. Summer camps might not seem very educational but they really are. They give you a chance to boost your teamwork, leadership or problem solving
What is Museum Education? Museum Education is about educating the public about History, Science, Math, or English etc., but in an informal setting (not in a classroom or school). Museum Education is about immersing the students in the topic at hand. For example, a walking tour guide in downtown Frederick, MD places their tour group literally in front of the history they are teaching them. Similarly, a museum education intern reads the students a book like the Ox Cart Man then places them in a market that will teach them too how to trade and barter. Although, a museum educator does not get to be in the classroom with the students, like a general education teacher, they teach students meaningful lessons that they often remember. Lauren Allen
My field experience really helped me shape, and form more perceptions of the school environment. I was able to see in personal what the job of an ENL entails, and how diverse he or she must be to successfully educate students. It was a great experience, and I cannot wait to create more of my own perceptions in the
Museums have been around for generations and as time has progressed, best practices and methodologies have adapted to adhere to contemporary trends. When answering the question of how to make museums more indispensable for tomorrow’s generation, we must be open to incorporate technological advances. As the world continues to move online, museums must be sure not stay behind. This paper will discuss the concept of digitization and the role it plays in museums in regard to collections management and preservation, education and engagement, and accessibility and inclusion. The final analysis will summarize the manner in which digitization contributes to keeping museums relevant to current and future audiences.
My field experience was at Clearwater Elementary School in my hometown of Piedmont, Missouri. My observations took place in a third grade classroom with an excellent teacher, Sheri Rainwater, and great students. Clearwater follows a curriculum that helps children develop skills and build on knowledge that is necessary to become successful in the future. During my time at Clearwater, I learned more about young children and the teaching profession. This experience opened my eyes to the reality of teaching, and got me even more excited about entering the field of education.
Mark, a fourth grader at Springfield Elementary came home and explained to his mom about the friend he had made during band class, and the teamwork he was involved in during volleyball practice. Mark failed to mention to his mom anything about his regular school day. “Extracurricular activities serve the same goal and functions as the required and elective courses in the curriculum. However, extracurricular activities provide experiences that are not required in the formal course of study. These after school programs allow students to apply the knowledge that they have learned in other classes and acquire concepts of democratic life” (Lunnenburg 2). Mark like many children usually forget the essentials from the normal school day curriculum like mathematics or sentence structure, but remember everyday lessons learned during after school programs. These programs or extracurricular activities include sports, clubs, dance, music, arts, drama and such, all programs that benefit elementary students. Today, in the United States when elementary schools do not have enough funds for these programs, the extracurricular activities are the first eliminated to save money. Elimination of these programs causes more harm than good to the students because these programs are just as beneficial as the normal school curriculum. Therefore all of these extracurricular programs must remain as an option in school districts.
How can school days benefit kids? Some beliefs on why school days should be longer is for a variety of reasons, kids struggling and kids being able to ask question. I also think school days should be longer because you can get more things done over the course of the school day. This could be helpful because it would only add like a couple minutes to each class. Kids could get their homework done also and could get more help. The second reason is that in an hour short school day we don't get enough time to ask questions. With longer school days we could add ten minutes a day just to ask questions if kids are confused or don't understand how to do something. We could also not cram in everything and get kids confused and it could help them
...ormal education to step up and play a more significant role. Informal education activities should no longer be looked upon as "a day away from school" but rather an opportunity to further learning and have fun doing it. Informal education settings are unique from the usual classroom location so it is refreshing to learn in a different place, just like so many students enjoy when they learn as a class outside in the warm breeze after a long cold winter. Informal education provides students with a new outlook on learning and makes them more attentive. But more importantly, informal education assists formal education; it does not replace it by any means. While it is hard to find a "perfect exhibit" to fit everyone’s needs, informal educators are doing the best they can. In the words of Frank Oppenheimer, founder of the San Francisco Exploratorium, "no one flunks museum."
