If you’re looking for some educational field trip ideas, then look no further! We’ve got some fantastic suggestions that’ll get your students engaged in your subject. The world is your oyster when you go on a field trip, with so much to investigate, explore, and learn.
Geography
One of the best field trip ideas is going on a Geography adventure. You have the opportunity to bring students’ learning to life by showing them geographical features, as well as allow them to conduct experiments and research and become real Geographers. They’re great for putting their learning into action!
Here are some topics that you could cover:
- Settlement Investigation
- Freshwater Pollution
- Map Skills
- Geology
- Coastal Management
- Coastal Processes and Features
- Urban Settlements
- Rivers
At PGL, we offer Geography KS3 trips, Geography GCSE trips, and Geography A-Level trips.
Biology
Mother nature is a classroom in itself. Another one of the greatest field trip ideas is taking students on a Biology trip. Students can get hands-on with fieldwork, exploring wildlife and marine life on the coasts, identifying potential habitats, and lots more.
As well as all the exciting practical work that you can conduct on a trip like this, there’s also potential for recording theories and creating research pieces. Students can collect data during their field trip lessons and produce their own case studies.
Some Biology field trip ideas and topics that you could cover include:
- Ecology
- Biodiversity
- Marine Zonation
- Psammoseral Succession
At PGL, we offer Biology A-Level trips for your Science students to enjoy.
Maths
Who said you can’t bring maths to life? We use theories, calculations and data collection in our everyday lives, so why not apply it to some epic activities and get your students thinking? This is a great way to link learning to the real world, where students can see the value of maths and how it’s used.
Here are some topics that you could adopt when completing activities on a maths field trip:
- Trigonometry
- Data-collection
- Algebra
- Ratios
- Percentages
- Angles
- Multiplication, addition, division and subtraction
- Distance/speed/time calculations
At PGL, we offer Maths KS3 trips for your number crunchers to experience.
