What Are Some of the Best Field Trip Ideas for Middle School Students?

Taking a field trip is one of the greatest delights for school-age children. Rather than spending another day inside the classroom, students get to learn in a new environment and receive hands-on lessons from someone who is not their teacher. (Was there anything better when you were a kid?) Nowadays, teachers have a wide range of options for field trips, including:

• Aquariums
• Science centers
• Farms
• Art and history museums
• Zoos
• Parks and wildlife refuges

Another great field trip idea for your middle school students? A STEM field trip at Laser Ops! Our family entertainment center is a great place to receive hands-on instruction and learn how science, technology, engineering, and math work together in the world of high-tech gaming.

Laser Ops’ STEM Field Trips

Your students will learn the ins and outs of operating a high-tech gaming facility, starting with a comprehensive tour of the facility where they will learn about the technical inner workings of Laser Ops. Then, they will participate in a hands-on lesson to learn how businesses use different technology to run their companies.

And since no field trip at Laser Ops is complete without some gaming, your students will have 90 minutes to play arcade games, laser tag, and Bazooka Ball, putting all their learning to the test.
