This travel bug is one of 27 being launched by teachers across the country. Its Discovery-themed mission is to accomplish the following by May 1, 2010.
• Discovery – Discover new places by visiting at least three different states.
• Animal Planet – Spend some time in a cache that is within 2 miles of a zoo or animal sanctuary/preserve.
• Planet Green – Visit a cache that is within 2 miles of a destination that focuses on sustainability and “Going Green.” E.g., recycling center, windmill, waste-to-energy plant, hybrid car dealership, etc.
• TLC – Hang out close to (within 1 mile) to one of these places of learning: library, museum or school.
• Return to a cache near Discovery Communications in Silver Spring, MD.
Discovery Communications revolutionized television with Discovery Channel and is now transforming classrooms through Discovery Education. Powered by the number one nonfiction media company in the world, Discovery Education combines scientifically proven, standards-based digital media and a dynamic user community – the Discovery Educator Network – in order to empower teachers to improve student achievement.

Sorry I was unable to place in a cache near a school or museum. Each time I found one I thought would be appropriate it was too small to hold the geocoin and attachments. Let me say, I think this is a wonderful way for the children to learn about different areas our history books fail to cover. I placed the geocoin in a cache in the woods on state game lands in Lebanon, Pennsylvania near Hershey. My originial plan was to try to place it in a historical cache in Lititz, PA which is about 14 miles from where we camped. The area is rich in history - maybe you could research the area as a class. Thanks for the opportunity to be involved in enriching your lives through knowledge & learning. You have an amazing & creative teacher. Making learning fun & interesting is the key. My sincerest applause for your efforts as an educator. We need more teachers with your outside the box teaching methods.
