Field Trip Reminder!

Reminder: Casey Farms Field Trip Friday, June 12

It's time to see where the eggs originated!

Preparation:
Clothing: Dress for farm conditions: boots, or covered shoes. You will encounter animals, dust, mud, and manure.

Weather: The forecast for Friday is warm and sunny. Hats and sunscreen are advised. A water bottle is also encouraged for the tour.

Lunch: Please pack a nut-free lunch. We will be sitting at tables as a group and want to ensure the safety of all. Be sure you have labeled the lunch bag with your name and have something to drink as well.

We will be leaving school shortly after 9:30.  The tour will be approximately 2 hours, and students will be divided into 5 groups. After the tour ends, we will wash our hands and have lunch, then return to the school. We will arrive back at school approximately 1PM to regroup. We will have time for a field trip reflection and for showcasing some of our Photo Voice projects.


It will be a magnificent day!! 
Ms. Tuttle
