Rough Draft Budget For Spanish Field Trip

     For my field trip, I will be taking my 8th grade Spanish class to Leslie's Bakery on Glenstone Ave. First, a request for the trip will be sent to the principle's office. Once approved, a permission slip will be sent home to the parents. The slip will warn parents of students with applicable allergies (peanut, dairy) to let me know in advance so that other plans can be made for the allergic students. Also, besides informing that parents of the travel plans for the day, the form will request that parents send students with two dollars each to assist in the cost of the bus, as well as any spending money the students might wish to use at the bakery.The two dollars and permission slips will be turned in the week before the trip. Students who are unable to attend due to neglect to turn in permission slips, or for other causes, will remain in the office with quiet work pertaining to the subject being studied (food unit). On the day of the field trip, first period students will load onto the bus at 8:50 a.m. We will arrive at Leslie's around 9:10 a.m. Students will be encouraged to show respect to those working in the store and to use vocabulary whenever appropriate. A head count will be taken before students enter the store. Students will be given adequate time to browse the bakery and adjacent Latino market, make purchases, and engage in conversation. At 9:45 a.m., students will return to the bus, head count will be taken, and students will return to the school at 10 a.m. dismissal bell. This way they will have necessary time to visit their lockers in passing. The same procedures will be duplicated for the next class beginning at 10:05 a.m.
