Language Arts

Fuelling idea generation and creating lifelong learners

As a language arts teacher, you understand that it doesn't matter how much you know if you're unable to effectively communicate it. Every day, you show your students how to use language to think, communicate and learn. To use language confidently and competently, they need to hear the ideas and experiences of others so they can take it one step further and form their own.

At E2 Adventures, we believe in the power of language arts to advance ideas in society and to inspire lifelong learners. You can easily integrate any and all of our educational programs into your language arts curriculum!

Language arts learning objectives for the exploration of ideas and experiences

Talk, listen and learn: our live, interactive, virtual field trips get your students thinking about—and contributing to—solving challenges and taking advantage of opportunities in today's world! Our programs help students learn how to organize information and convey meaning. After participating in an E2 adventure, students will understand the current state of affairs of a timely project and be inspired to think of ways to move those ideas forward.

Apply questioning strategies

During all of our field trips, students are actively encouraged to respond to the experts' ideas, ask questions to increase their comprehension of the subject, and support their own ideas with relevant evidence. Continue asking, debating and researching questions afterwards; in fact, asking questions is the foundation of our educational approach!

Use language in new contexts

Acquire new vocabulary, convey meaning in more complex contexts, and learn about literacy demands in the international community. Students can listen critically to evaluate an expert's approach, discuss the differences and similarities of the sites they visit, and use specific examples to illustrate a current issue in the world today.

Generate ideas

Our programs show students how they can use language skills to play an active role in a variety of learning and working situations. When exploring a topic through an E2 field trip, students will analyze the issue at hand, brainstorm possible solutions, develop and synthesize their ideas, and reflect on outcomes.

Social studies learning objectives create global citizens

Engage your social studies students with our live, interactive field trips and get them excited about contributing to their world! Our programs are rooted in today's real-world challenges and provide students with a comprehensive understanding of the subject. After participating in an E2 adventure, students will be energized to discuss historical, cultural and societal aspects of a problem, all with the goal of coming up with concrete solutions!

Analyze contemporary issues

What are the global impacts of digital currencies? How do we provide as many people as possible with affordable food or housing? How do we offset the environmental cost of technologies on which the world relies? Your students can explore these issues and more on our virtual field trips.

Engage in problem solving

Meet industry professionals who will take you and your students around their worksites to explain the challenges they're facing and what they're doing about it. Ask questions and share your ideas. Our field trips bring social studies education to life!

Inspire informed civic action

Our programs foster critical thinking skills by encouraging students to analyze, evaluate, and develop their own informed opinions. Armed with new knowledge and inspired to make a difference, your students will be well on their way to becoming active global citizens.

What is an E2 program?

At its core, an E2 program is a live broadcast during which you and your students will visit multiple sites and meet multiple industry experts all in a single class period, without the cost and hassle of bus transportation or permission slips. During the event, you and your students can ask the experts questions via our interactive Slido platform.

But an E2 program starts before the one-hour broadcast and can continue afterwards, as well. Each of our educational programs is built around a curriculum-aligned theme, and we provide educational materials for you to use both before and after the event, including discussion questions, mind maps, experiential learning activities, reflection questions, links to external resources and more. In addition, if your students asked any questions that were not answered during the live broadcast, we'll follow up with the experts on your behalf and get answers!

E2 programs are designed to fit easily into any curriculum, and we're happy to answer any and all questions you might have on how to do so, either by email or live chat.

Who are these virtual field trips for?

E2 Adventures are designed for students in Grades 6 through 12. We're currently working on developing virtual field trips for a younger audience! If you'd be interested in providing feedback on how we can adapt our field trips to students in Grades 2 through 5, please send an email to info@e2adventures.com.

What's so special about E2's virtual field trips?

Our educational approach is what makes our virtual field trips so special. E2 field trips are:

Live: Whether we're visiting a site in Canada, Iceland, Australia or Japan, you'll meet the experts live, in real time.

Interactive: Using the innovative Slido platform, your students can ask questions at any time. They'll also participate in polls, answer trivia questions and maybe even vote on the next thing they want to see! E2 virtual field trips engage students in active learning.

Curriculum-aligned: How could an E2 Adventure fit in with your particular curriculum requirements? That's easy! All of our events are multidisciplinary, and we provide educational resources that will help you seamlessly integrate the field trip into your classroom learning.

What makes these field trips interactive?

During each and every live broadcast, students can ask the experts questions in real time via the Slido platform. Several questions will be answered during the event. Questions that are not answered during the broadcast will be sent to the experts so that they can answer them in writing in a document we will email to you the following week—providing another opportunity for you and your students to circle back to what they learned!

Our events team will also engage your students during the trip by posting live polls and getting students' input on what they'd like to see next.

What programs are available?

For a list of the live, interactive, virtual field trips currently in production this school year, visit the Programs & Events page. If there's something you'd like to see that's not currently offered, let us know by emailing us at info@e2adventures.com!

How long is an E2 field trip?

Our virtual field trips are one hour long. You and your students can join the Slido event up to half an hour before the broadcast starts to answer introduction polls and test your knowledge of the subject!

I signed up. Now what?

Once your registration is confirmed, we will send you field trip-specific educational resources that you can use before or after the event. We'll communicate with you two weeks prior to the event with more information, as well as one day before the event as a reminder.

What do I need to get ready?

It's easy to stream the live broadcast or show an asynchronous version of an E2 Adventure. All you need is your classroom computer and projector!

You can choose to stream the event on YouTube or Vimeo. You will be provided with both links prior to the broadcast, and you can open the links up to 30 minutes before the start of the broadcast.

Share the provided Slido link and/or QR code with your students up to 30 minutes before the start of the broadcast. They can start to interact with the events team via live polls and multiple-choice questions.

No downloads! Just make sure that your school's firewalls don't prevent you or your students from accessing YouTube/Vimeo or Slido.
