Fun Things to do Over Spring Break to Build Your Student's Background Knowledge

First-hand experiences are another teacher for your child. Take them to museums, the zoo, the library, parks, arts performances, & geographic locations such as the mountains, beaches, forests, and deserts. They’ll grasp concepts and skills better if they have experiences with the real thing. This gives a real-life connection. Below is a fun list of things to do over Spring Break:

1. Visit the Zoo! The Penguin's are back!
2. Visit the Science Center: They will have several free dinosaur exhibits throughout the month of April
3. Let your imagination go wild at the City Museum
4. Learn all about the history of your state at the Missouri History Museum
5. Go to the Magic House to do hands-on learning activities
6. Visit the beautiful Missouri Botanical Gardens
7. Take a bike ride around Forest Park

Don't forget to listen to your fun Spring Break CD filled with songs we use at school to learn.
