Field Trips
The school could go on field trips to different businesses and companies in the community to see how they benefit the community and everyone in it. Students could get a better idea of the types of businesses that are in their own communities and take that new knowledge into the classroom. They have to work together to make their community a better place to live and that same cooperation will make their classrooms a better place to learn.
