Dear Parents/ Guardians,

As many of you know, our 4thgrade class has been studying California history this past

year. We have recently been learning about the Gold Rush, who the miners were, how they

came here, and what life was like in California during this time period.

I am please to announce that our class will be going on a field trip to Coloma to go on the

Gold Discovery Tour at Marshall Gold Discovery State Historic Park on Friday Oct 17th. This tour

will tell the story and view the sites of what The Coloma Valley was like before James

Marshall's gold discovery, the events leading up to his incidental discovery, and the history of the

California Gold Rush and town of Coloma. We will see a working replica of Sutters Mill and

meet docents dressed up in period clothing. I have attached our itinerary on the next page. We

will be leaving school at 7:00 am and returning at 4:30 pm.

Students will need:

$10.00 to cover the cost of the bus and our tourA sweater and good walking shoes

A packed lunch and two snacks (please no glass items)

Permission Slip

Health History Card

Permission slip, health history card, and $10.00 fee must be returned by Oct 12th

school number.

Thank you,

On Monday, as a class we will review how we are expected to act on a field trip. Students

will model behavior in the form of role-play. We will also discuss our class rules and how

they still apply outside of our classroom. We will review before we leave on the day of the

field trip with our chaperones.

Students will be expected to be respectful and listen to one another as well as all leaders.Students will be expected to stay safe by keeping with their group.

Students will be expected to respect their environment by touching only items on the field

trip that their guide approves, by not littering, and not destroying any items.

Students are expected to keep a positive attitude and be kind to one another.

I will also review consequences:

Warning

Put with teachers group for behavior to improve

Parents called and student must write a note as to their inappropriate behavior.

Chaperones will receive index cards with the following:

-First give warning to student if behaving inappropriately, then send student to teacher.

-Chaperones are expected to model good behavior for students, showing a positive attitude

throughout the trip.

- No student is to be left unattended at any time.

Bathroom breaks and lunch are included in the itinerary. Students are to use the bathroomwith their group and never alone. Chaperones are to notify teacher if having an unplanned

bathroom break.
