Today's field trip was a pre-recorded one from a 6th grader who lives close to a motorcycle club. The club has a dirt racing track and a big hill where they have a 'hill climb' event once a year in August. So her neighbor (part of the club), took her and her dad on a tour (which they filmed). She spliced the videos together and showed it to our class along with her commentary of what they were doing/seeing. It turned out pretty good once we figured out how she could show it to our class. Video files are huge and she couldn't email it to me. She ended up downloading the Teams app on her phone, joined the call there, and shared her phone screen with the class.
When you are in a video call, the other people can't hear any sound coming out of your computer, so we could see the video but couldn't hear it. Since it was kind of short notice to figure out a way to get sound, I told her to just tell us what they were saying in the video. That worked just fine.
Next Friday field trip is another student's farm!
