SCICON Fifth Grade Day Trips

SCICON's Fifth Grade Day Trip is an important science learning field trip. Students are led by experienced trail guides on one of the SCICON trails to experience nature firsthand and to be introduced to important science concepts. Lessons that focus on the natural resources of trees or water are presented. The lessons are designed to support the fifth-grade science standards, as well as encourage a sense of excitement and discovery.
