FIELD TRIP INFORMATION:
A general field trip letter was sent home in the homework folders today and will be e-mailed, however, there are a few things I was thinking about that I wanted to make sure I wrote. Much of it is a repeat of what is in the general letter, some of it may be a bit different just based on my experiences in the past years. Clothing - Students do need to wear their uniform. It is usually cool in the morning, but it does get hot. I suggest wearing the uniform shorts rather than pants. Chaperones are not responsible for children's clothing items so if your child wants to take a jacket make sure it is light weight so it can easily tie it around the waist. Hats and sunglasses are recommended. Feeding the Animals - Students may feed the animals. If your child wants to feed the animals please send quarters in a plastic Ziploc bag. Make sure your child's name is clearly written on the baggie. In the past, students have usually brought about 2 - 3 dollars in quarters. (Students will not be going on rides or purchasing items at the gift shop.) Sunscreen - Please apply sunscreen before your child comes to school. Lunches - Please send a cold lunch with your child. All food must be disposable and placed in disposable containers. Everything will be thrown away after lunch. In the past, students' lunches have been packed in paper sacks, large Ziploc bags, and or plastic grocery bags. Please make sure your child's name and class (1C) is clearly labeled on the outside of the bag. ( If your child wants to eat a healthy snack when they return to school, please place in a separate pocket in their back pack.) Water bottles - Students will be responsible for their own water bottles. Please send a clearly labeled disposable water bottle with your child on that day. That is everything I can think of at the moment. If I think of anything else I will send the information through email. Please e-mail me if you have any questions.
