REVIEW:
This excellent resource from Scholastic is just what the teacher ordered for lesson planning. Each of the trips provides appropriate Web sites for enhancing specific curriculum topics. All areas of the curriculum -- reading/language arts, science, math, social studies, and a special section for K-2 -- are included. The field trips meet a variety of content standards and could be used as a research guide for students using the Internet. There is a Teacher's Guide included that provides an activity overview, standards, technology tips, and classroom strategies. And of course, the other deep resources of the Scholastic site are linked from the pages.
