Plan a Field Trip
Program Outline:
Students are divided into small groups to allow each student multiple opportunities for hands-on practice. The groups cycle through different learning stations, each introducing vocabulary and physical evidence through demonstration and participation, which support an idea or process.
Groups generally rotate through four learning stations:
- Boat Design
- Steam Bending
- Caulking and Trunnel Making
- Applying Simple Machines to Gain Mechanical Advantage
Additional/Alternate Activities:
- Build Your Own Chebacco Boat Workshop (additional fee required)
- Visit to the School House, Hearse House, and the Old Burying Ground
- Storytime
