A great field trip the 5th grade students get to take is to Biz Town. Prior to their trip, they learn about filling out applications and apply for various jobs. They get instruction on how to fill out a checkbook, too. The kids know what jobs they will have when they go to Biz Town. Then they spend the day working, getting paid, going to the bank, paying taxes, and spending money. It's a great, real life experience for them.
Cannon worked at Exotic Metals as an engineer. He had to make airplanes and then package them, getting them ready to sell.
Here he is signing the back of his check before going to the bank.
Chris was a volunteer and helped the student "employees" at Delta Dental. I'm glad he was able to attend and be part of this experience. I was able to go and visit for about 45 minutes.
Awesome experience!
Enjoying every moment!
