Field Trips

Good morning!

Tomorrow is the last day to turn in a permission form and $5 to join us on our last field trip this year.

We will be spending half the day at the Detroit Institute of Art and half the day at the Detroit Parade Company.

Here is an article giving some insight as to why field trips are vital to a child’s education. For me, it also serves as a great reminder that 4th graders are still kids and need time to be kids  🙂  Especially before all our testing begins, it will be a nice break from academics.

The benefits of field trips

 

Have a great day and remember, no school this Friday, April 19th.
