What Teachers Are Saying

Grade 1 TeacherCrawford Plains School

Engaging and good pace at each station. This program provides a good overview of the Social Studies curriculum. The Puppet station (decision making) is a big hit and students love it. (In-School program)

R.M., Grade 1 TeacherCoronation School

Lots of different learning outcomes were met in different ways. The students seemed excited to be a part of each station. (In-School program)

J.S., Grade 1 TeacherCrestomere School

I liked that the field trip was directly related to curriculum - it's nice for the students to hear some of content from someone other than me 🙂 The kids loved the puppets! (In-School Program)

O.M., Grade 1 TeacherSt. Matthew School

The stations were very well organized and had a curriculum connection. The Presenter was awesome. (In-School program)

E.J., Grade 1 TeacherDonald R. Getty School

I have been doing this field trip with the grade ones every year for the past 5 years. I like everything about it that is why I do it annually. It covers the outcomes of the different units in the Social Studies curriculum. It is very child friendly, simple, hands on and engaging. (In-School program)
