[quote=Anonymous]Former teacher and parent who went to the American History museum as a chaperone for a small group. Another mom allowed her group to go screaming and running through the First Ladies' exhibit. No effort to stop it. I still do not understand the idea that field trips are important. I taught Title I kids--they were an asset for them. But, simple is better. UMC kids going to the American History museum with their class----not an asset. I posted this earlier: when I was in fourth grade, we went to a bank and the newspaper. Both were real learning experiences which would not be readily available except as a school trip. In other words, individuals are not able to take their kids behind the scenes to see a newspaper printed as it was then.[/quote]
