Grade 7 : Field Trip to National Museum on 12 March 2009

By Anang P.Setiawan

On Thursday, 12 March 2009 the 7 graders went to National Museum, Jakarta to do a field trip. This activity was a part of Social Studies project in History of Indonesia, especially about Pre-historic Era. We left our school at 9.30am and arrived at Museum around 11.30am. After having lunch, the students started to do the project. The students were asked to do some activities, such as doing observation, collecting data, interviewing, answering questions on the project booklet and making an essay based on the data they have gathered from museum.

The students were divided into 3 groups and each group was guided by an official tourist guide. The students listened attentively to the guide and asked many questions about the museum. They were very interested on the items displayed in the museum. It's interesting for them to be able to see the artifacts from the past and learned something from them.

The students finished the activity at 1.45 pm. We left the museum at 2pm. In a bus, on the way back to school they were very tired but felt happy and satisfied with their tasks. We arrived at school at 3pm. It was an exciting and educational trip.

Note : The duedate for submitting the booklet project and essay is extended till 27 March 2009.

Please do not be late to submit your task.
