My favorite field trip I went on was when in the third went to the planetarium. We were studying stars, their different patterns, the shapes, and how they line up in the sky. When we went to planetarium we had a presentation that showed us the stars above our head, and the people who worked at the planetarium told us about the different stars that were less known.
I remember being totally entranced in the show, and loving every second of it. The screen above us made it feel like we were sitting under the stars. And when they'd focus on one star, or constellation, the screen would zoom into it, and it felt like you were in a spaceship flying through space.
What made this trip so memorable to me was that it a lesson I had never done before. When we had talked about the stars in class, we'd look at pictures in books, or on the internet. But it always felt like we were in the classroom. This gave us a kind of out-of-body experience and made us forget that we were learning, and all we had to enjoy the field trip.
