[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I used to take my 7th grade students on a field trip to the Smithsonian American Art museum and it was awesome. We previewed a bunch of the paintings beforehand and talked about their connection to concepts we had covered. The museum education dept worked to create a scavenger hunt based on what I’d told them about our curriculum. Was this Smithsonian American Art, National Gallery, Portrait Gallery? The DC field trips really are super limited time-wise when you use FCPS busses. You can’t leave before 9:45 or so and have to be back by like 1:45. With traffic and lunch, it doesn’t leave a lot of time. [/quote] We were told we couldn't leave until 10:15 and had to be back by 1:15. Our kids ate lunch when they got back. It was insanely short.[/quote]
