I was recently reading the January/February 2021 issue of \u201cThe Science Teacher\u201d a publication of the National Science Teaching Association.\xa0\xa0In this issue, I read the section \u201cCurrent Science Classroom\u201d written by Chris Anderson.\xa0\xa0Chris wrote an article entitled \u201cField Trips Last a Lifetime.\u201d
