the value of fieldtrips

Class trips and Field Trips for school groups, scout troops and home school groups introduce young people to a world of experiences that can open new avenues of learning that carries throughout their lives.
From nature walks to museum adventures, class trips provide unique educational opportunities. People learn in different ways through hearing, seeing, touching, talking, or doing. We have provided a quick reference of your state’s Learning Standards as well as Scout Merit Badge categories to assist you when planning trips.
An important part of learning is exploring new environments and learning about other cultures and regions of our country that can help to foster tolerance and understanding. We have expanded the Destination Section to help you plan overnight and travel trips for your students. :)
