Chaperone Preparedness and Assistance

The success of your field trip will depend on your ability to actively prepare and involve your parent chaperones in the field trip activities. Without adult guidance, many of the students will not complete their field journals. It is essential that your field trip have as much structure as your classroom lessons. To accomplish this, we recommend that you assign each of your parents to a small group of students. Inform parents that they are responsible for assisting their students with the field observations and with the journal questions. Provide chaperones with their own copies of the student journals and encourage them to complete their journals with the students. Rangers will be utilizing chaperones to assist with creek assessment equipment.
