Most homeschool families are on limited budgets. I always try and find a fun and interesting place for us to go on field trips but we were limited because of our budget. Well thanks to the internet I have been able to take the children to TONS of places, even overseas!!!
If you have not tried a VIRTUAL Field Trip, you don't know what you're missing.
We can take a virtual tour to France, India, England, Canada, etc. I don't have to pack a bag, get passports or find a sitter for the family pet. It's not the same as being there, but hey it's FREE and our family LOVES VFTD (Virtual Field Trip Day). You can plan them around lessons or just go somewhere fun and have the children write about it OR make an eNotebook. Let me help you get started.
Seasons Around the World
The Adler Planetarium has designed this multi-media animated presentation to help kids understand seasons and why they are oppposite in the northern and southern hemispheres of Earth.
