The Zoo will allow the students to view the habits of animals, listen to the sounds that the each make. Allow students to work on small motor skills and creativity with project that may be assigned.
When you take a virtual field trip to the zoo, you may use tools to assist with the trip to the zoo. By videoing a field trip or using a web camera it will allow the students to see the animals in the zoo. With this in mind the students may then create a visual of all the animals that they have seen. You can give the students other materials as well such as magazines so that they can cut out pictures of the animals that they saw on the virtual field trip and make cards for an activity learning game.

The use of an Education Field trip Virtual style may also allow the students the same benefits as a real field trip. One of the key factors that might play into the role is that the virtual field trip may save a school money verses going on an actual field trip.
With a virtual field trip you can possible have more research material available on hand easier verses when you go on the field trip, all data and information may not be available at the time of the field trip. However the can be about the same for students.
Reflections:
As I reviewed my topic, I found that both field trips can be fun and educational, you have to make your students involved in what they are learning, make it exciting for them. As I have learned with field trips some can be out of cost budget for students. With technology today the virtual field trips can be just as fun as well as with an actual trip off of school grounds.
