the students. Mangrove depths helped them in learning about the importance of Mangroves. Shopping centre, dentist corner, ambulance, transportation and construction area and operation table made the students understand how these professions run on a day to day basis. A quick visit to the Anti Gravity room was also a blithesome experience indeed. At the Water World, students observed how dams work and how the electricity is generated through hydro power. Music area was filled with numerous musical instruments. Students explored different sounds and patterns by playing music using provided utensils only.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The trip ended with a visit to the Foodology Cafe for a bite. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The decor of the caf\u00e9 provided an interesting ambiance to relax and think about science and sources of food.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">It was indeed a magical experience for our students which urged them to re-think about how science, mathematics and physics work in our daily lives. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cTell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learn.\u201d &#8211; Benjamin Franklin Educational&hellip; <a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/418\/a-field-trip-to-remember\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">A Field Trip to Remember<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":337,"featured_media":223,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2,4],"tags":[14,18,12],"class_list":["post-221","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-field-trips","category-school-events","tag-beyond-just-book","tag-magnifiscience","tag-school-events","entry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/418\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/221","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/418\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/418\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/418\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/337"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/418\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=221"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/418\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/221\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":231,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/418\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/221\/revisions\/231"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/418\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/223"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/418\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=221"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/418\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=221"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/418\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=221"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
