On The Rood Agoin Field' Trips givgsrudenrs o chonce to leorn outside the clossroom X X o we get out of class? Can we miss more than one? These are common questions every teacher hears when considering a field trip. Being able to miss class is what most students call a successful field trip. However, others feel that going on a field trip is notjust missing school but a way to enrich their knowledge. For example, by touring lntema- tional Paper Co., students in Mrs. Gross advanced accounting class were able to see the process reg- ular notebook paper goes through before enter- ing the stores. I never realized what it took just to make paper, commented Jennifer Hopkins. Mr. Patrick's biology ll class went about field trips a different way. lnstead of missing school, they made an after school excursion. After going out to eat, Mr. Patrick and a few students drove out to the shuffel where they caught different kinds of birds to study. We caught a Red Tail Hawk and an American Castro Falcon in a wire trap with nooses that we made ourselves, said Jimmy Tovmsend. There is always a process that must be taken before going on a field trip. The administration must have information from the teacher involving all the details of the trip: where the students will be going, how long it will take, and how many will demics be going. After the administration gives the OK , the trip has to be cleared with the business or company that is involved. Mr. Henderson said he feels that field trips have value to the students' education. He thinks if they are supervised in a well manner and if the teacher wil take time to test or have an evaluation of what the students have leamed, the trip would not just be a day of missing school. Drama students gained a better understand- ing of how the theater works by visiting the Perot Theater. They told us about the history of the Perot Theater and how the lighting and sound systems work, said Becky Smith. 'llt was interesting see- ing how a real theater works. Mr. Carozza and Mrs. Phillips took their stu- dents to Shreveport to visit the General Motors plant, SPAR planetarium, and a NASA exhibit. We saw how they assembled Broncos at GM and saw spaceships and rockets at NASA, ex- plained Crerri Felling. Overall, field trips have been found as a fun approach to education. While students gain knowledge, they also get a break from the every- day class. Page Sponsor SOUTHERN ICE Sr 102 Oak Street
