Steemhomework for the week! School trip

Excursions stimulate children and are a form of learning, outside of school.

Children see excursions as a free day, but in reality it is an appropriate day to learn, know, distinguish and relate to the environment.

The planning of the excursion requires a series of steps to follow, which include a detailed list of what is needed to be able to attend a day outdoors with the children. We can never leave without being prepared, that is why the excursions are made in advance.

What should the list contemplate?

• Number of children to attend.
• parental permission.
• Food and drink supplies, (water, juices)
• Paramedics.
• Medicines for children and adults.
• Medical report of children, in case of being allergic.
• camera, to capture the special moments of the children.
• Funds to pay for the exit.
• Give the talk, before the excursion.

It is always necessary to take into account what necessary for the outputs to be successful.

Excursion to the thermal waters.

It was one of my first excursion trips and I was very excited as were the children when I notified them.

To start the walk, as an educator you must explain where you will go, what is the place to visit and what you will find at the exit.

Explain that they are the thermal waters: they are hot waters, which are maintained at a temperature of 5 ° C, normally the thermal waters are located where there are geological faults.

Upon reaching the site, the children were asked to stand in line, one behind the other to avoid any unwanted eventuality, since we would be in contact with hot water.

We made stops so that the children had contact with nature, and could take a picture of the site.

While the children watched the smoke coming out of the water, they were asked not to get too close, since they were not used to such strong heat, and any risk of falling into the water should be avoided. Although the children were told that there are nearby pools where people bathe, as they attribute therapeutic properties.

While we continued the walk, we were observing the water, and by our presence in the place, the intensity of the water vapor increased, by the voice,having to do with the geological fault.

Why did the trip succeed?

The success of the excursion is reflected in the motivation and enthusiasm that the children had and in their development in the environment, since they were given the appropriate information so that they could be in contact with nature.

The children, felt nature as their home, lived a new experience, learned about the thermal water, and that its use is beneficial for the care of our health, since therapies are made in it.
