Lakbay Aral (School Tour)
Lakbay Aral (Study Tour) in Kindergarten during a lesson on plants is a hands-on, experiential activity that enhances learning by immersing children in real-life experiences related to the topic. The activity begins with preparation, where teachers integrate the study tour into the lesson objectives, such as recognizing the parts of a plant, understanding how plants grow, and learning their importance. Pre-tour activities include introducing key concepts through stories, songs, and visuals, as well as discussing what the children can expect to see during the activity. Parental involvement is essential, so parents are informed about the activity, and their permission is sought while encouraging them to prepare their children with proper attire, snacks, and water. On the day of the Lakbay Aral, the class visits a location such as the school garden, a nearby park, or a farm to observe plants closely. Teachers guide the children in identifying plant parts, exploring different types of plants, and understanding their functions. After the visit, a reflection activity helps the children recall their observations and experiences, reinforcing the lesson objectives in a meaningful and enjoyable way.
