Field trip essentials

Field trip essentials prepare teachers for their field trip to Fermilab!

Bring your students to Fermilab for NGSS-aligned field trips that connect to the authentic science being done at the laboratory.

Prerequisite: To fully prepare your students for a physical science or life science visit, teachers must participate in either a two-hour training session or a summer Teacher Workshop. These will give you all of the information and resources to implement engaging preparatory activities in the classroom that introduce the essential concepts, content, and logistics of the field trip. Your participation will allow your students to learn more about the research and ecology of Fermilab and to better appreciate their on-site experience.
