Portland Walking Tour

Guidelines & Safety
Review safety guidelines in your parent
guide.
Please help students remember that we
are guests in the buildings they visit.
Manners are a must!
Safety first- plan to review the guidelines
with your group before starting the tour.

iPads
Our students will be creating presentations based on
pictures and/or video taken with our class iPads.
Only parent chaperones should handle the iPads.
Plan to take 10-15 pictures. Students will have clipboards
and a work packet to complete along the way.
Ask the students in your group to give you feedback on
what parts of the trip to photograph. This will help them
to create a great presentation of their favorite parts of
the trip.
