On Thursday, February 26, 2026, registered students and teachers will make their way to Honda Center to "Light the Lamp" at the First Flight Field Trip. Students will work on their "Hockey Homework" as they watch the Anaheim Ducks practice. Then the Ducks become the teachers! Knowing how to "Light the Lamp" takes more than than hockey skills. It will require an understanding of how electricity works and completing a circuit that will take students from the classroom to the ice rink.
All student-participants will receive a workbook to work through these concepts in the classrooms. Activity kits will also be provided for for some simple in class demonstrations. Additional kits will be made available to registered homeschool groups based on availability.
The First Flight Field Trip has been recognized as a contributor to informal education by the National Science Teachers' Association for its successful efforts of communicating math and science concepts in a unique but effective way. The academic principles covered in the workbook and at the event have been designed for grades 3 to 6.
