Welcome to the New Jersey Field Trip and Enrichment Guide, compiled by NJ Kids! Whether you are a teacher planning a school field trip, a scout leader organizing an outing, a PTO president designing a fundraiser, or a parent searching for a weekend adventure - don't look any further!

Although I open Twitter in the classroom once in a while using my appletv, I am learning there are so many more ways to utilize this tool. In any case, twitter has replaced my newspaper and many other sources of reading about the news and what is going on in the world.

Reports are in. This article by McGraw Hill answers questions that our parents may have so I am going to attach it to a hyperlink on my teacher page.

The Pope made personal pleas to Obama and Cuban leaders in private letters, writing that the two nations should try to reset their relations after decades of friction. It will be interesting to see if this is actually going to happen!

Pope Francis celebrated mass in Benedict's honour on Thursday morning, saying he hopes God "supports him and gives him much joy and happiness".

One of the things that I love about creating worksheets on this site is that no two are the same. When students have the ability to open a worksheet online, they will often search for the answers.

These are interesting links to try in your classroom. Enjoy!
