We are going to the Great Salt Lake
The Lakeside Learning Field Trip Program is a 2.5 hours inquiry based educational field trip for 4th grade students. The trips combine informal environmental education strategies while incorporating science, technology, engineering, art and math (STEAM) to reinforce the Utah Common Core State Science Standards. Lakeside Learning emphasizes learning through participation.
The trip includes wetlands exploration/discussion, bird watching, and wading in Great Salt Lake (weather permitting). Our students will get their hands dirty and their feet wet!
