Why Field Trips Matter to Your Homeschool And then I talked with a few other moms about their ideas, which sounded fantastic. I was probably wondering how it would affect our Latin syllabus.ĭuring that first meeting the group leaders assigned out dates for field trips (each mom had to plan and execute two field trips during the year) and I received an assignment. 17 years ago is a little blurry for me, but I do remember attending their first meeting, where they were organizing field trips for the year, and thinking to myself, “We can’t take off school every Friday!”
The one thing I did do right that year was join a field-trip group full of more experienced homeschoolers. So I bought mountains of textbooks and curriculum, overjoyed at the thought that we’d all be speaking Latin and solving multivariable equations by Christmas! I thought and researched, and the only I idea I could come up with for “better” was more rigorous. But I wanted our homeschool to be better than what I had grown up with, only I couldn’t really define better. When I first began homeschooling 17 years ago, there were fewer resources for homeschoolers, so I just created what I had grown up - school at our kitchen table. Field trips are something I’m passionate about, and that’s why I’m sharing all of my best field trip ideas today.
