Making This Field Trip Matter!
Place-Based Field Trip Professional Development Day
Place-based education immerses students in local heritage, cultures, landscapes, opportunities and experiences using these as a foundation for the study of language arts, mathematics, social studues, science and other subjects across the curriculum. The day is an opportunity to learn about local history and resources and how you can bring that into your lessons. This is an opportunity for you to explore North Island field trip options with the supports of a local guide. With a local guide, Knowledge Keeper, and your colleagues, we hope you will learn and think about new ideas and ways to explore place-based education in your programming.
