\"\"<\/a>Field trips<\/strong> make the curriculum come alive for students. These field trips were established for all fourth and fifth grade students to learn more about their community. Fifth graders travel to the Bethlehem Steel Stacks and fourth graders travel to the Freemansburg Canal Education Center. The interaction among students, teachers, and organizations so closely associated with the past and present of the city will promote a \u201ccommon bond\u201d among diverse populations of Bethlehem.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Students will develop an understanding and appreciation of Bethlehem\u2019s historical significance, especially as it relates to America\u2019s Industrial Era, while applying reading and writing strategies to high-interest topics. The Forging History and Community in Bethlehem field trips develop students\u2019 pride in their community and apply knowledge of their community to future learning.<\/p>\n

Forging History and Community in Bethlehem serves the grade-level focus on American History as well as the economic and social development of the nation and region. By providing a powerful, local illustration of academic concepts, students will be able to apply an understanding of class content in a meaningful way.<\/p>\n
