What is a Virtual Field Trip?Virtual Field Trips take the class to somewhere they’d never normally be able to go, and meet people and/or animals they would not normally be able to see. Examples include museums, zoos, a school in a rainforest, bird sanctuaries, and those who do marine research. Anything that will capture the children’s imaginations, and ideally for teachers, content that ties in with their SOL objectives.

How do I sign up?A team will take you through the system and also set you up with some practice calls with experienced teachers who can guide you through the process- these can be done before your Virtual Field Trip is publically available- this will only be done once you’re 100% ready. Then you can arrange and run your Virtual Field Trip as suits you. Contact: Kelly Anderson, Skype Virtual Field Trip Partnerships, +1-206-949-0167
