Field Trip Info & News Cast Club Post

JK Memorial

It’s time for a Field Trip! The 3rd-6th grade will be taking a guided tour inside the Brazilian National Congress and visit the city map. Students will visit both Senate and House of Representatives. After this they will visit the National Museum and then the JK Memorial to learn more about Juscelino Kubitschek, the president that built Brasilia. Students will have lunch at McDonald’s.

[This field trip integrates the topics discussed in Social Studies and there will be an assignment to follow this trip]

WHEN:  Monday, May 28th, 2012 at 8:30 a.m. and return to the school by 3 p.m.

NEEDS: Students will need to wear their school uniform. Pants are mandatory to enter Government buildings in Brazil. If the student does not have uniform pants they must come in nice jean pants (no holes). Shoes are also mandatory. No sandals or crocs allowed. They must bring a water bottle, money for lunch, and a notebook and pencil for taking notes. (If a student brings a camera, it is their responsibility to keep track of it)

COST:   R$15 plus money for lunch at McDonalds or a sack lunch
Please Note:  If you choose to send your child with a sack lunch, they will be responsible for carrying it around to all of the places all day.   

Your child received a permission slip this last Friday.  Please fill it out and turn it in by Friday, May 25th.
