In-Class Field Trips/Embedded Professional Development

In-Class Field Trips are designed to motivate and inspire students while modeling hands-on activities for teachers. Programs typically follow the 5-E Model for lesson planning. Ideally GYSTC will use a single day to present the activity to each class of a particular grade-level thus allowing all students and all teachers to participate. Because this is a professional development activity, the classroom teacher is expected to be present and to participate in the activity.
