It’s back to school season, so you know what that means? Time to plan your field trips for the year! If you’re looking for fun, educational activities in Tallahassee, Skate World Center has you covered! Our S.T.E.M. field trips are the perfect combination of hands-on S.T.E.M. learning and fun, keeping your students engaged and excited while learning about physics, math, physical fitness, and more!
S.T.E.M. And Skating Are The Perfect Pair
Our Tallahassee field trip program offers education and fun, all rolled into one! Professional S.T.E.M. educators teach students how math and science can be applied to all aspects of life, including fun activities such as roller skating.
Our lessons are available for grades kindergarten to 12th. They are tailored to your group to relate directly back to their classroom learning. Each field trip includes a 1 hour S.T.E.M. lesson and then is followed by 2 hours of roller skating! This time allows the students to see the principles discussed during the lesson in motion and gives them some healthy exercise for an added physical education bonus.
