Well, we are headed that way and these initiatives are some of the current happenings in our beautiful city. So, whether your kids are homeschooled or you are thinking of expanding the classroom with some extra activities we want to share the scoop with you.
During each homeschool session, students are encourage to come together to explore a science topic in depth through hands-on lessons designed to spark their curiosity and ignite an interest in STEM.The informal science education environment encourages students to ask questions, gain experience using scientific tools and make connections, both intellectual and social, through engaging experiments and activities.
Each homeschool session is four-weeks in duration with lessons occurring on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 2:00 to 4:00 p.m. in the museumās Knight Learning Center. All sessions are facilitated by science educators and include all materials and supplies related to the lesson.
Cost:Ā $200 for non-members/$170 for members per four-week session.
