Field Trips Students Learn Eslpod Police People Children

Most schoolchildren "look forward to" (are excited and eager to do something) going on field trips with their classmates. Students usually don't go very far, so the field trips vary based on where the school is located.

Probably the most common type of field trip is to go to a museum, especially a science museum or a history museum. Usually the students stay together as a group, and they "typically" (usually) have a "guide" (a person who leads a tour) who provides information about what the students are seeing. Students sometimes have lists of questions that they're expected to answer as they learn about a particular topic.

Some field trips go to hospitals, police stations, or "fire stations" (buildings where firefighters and their trucks are when they're not putting out a fire). These field trips allow students to learn about "first responders" (people who respond to emergencies, like police officers) and how they work to protect others.

Other field trips take children to "manufacturing facilities" (factories; places where things are made) or farms, where they can learn about the how the things that they use every day are produced or made. Many children are "fascinated by" (very interested in) how their food gets to the grocery store or how their paper is made from trees.

Still other field trips are at government offices or "state capitol" buildings (where the state government operates). Students might get to meet with their "elected representatives" (people who are voted into office) as they learn how laws are made.
