Let the Museum of Science and History’s high-energy team of science educators bring the excitement of science learning to your classroom through expanded outreach programs.

All programs:

• Support the elementary TEKS and TAKS objectives
• Provide pre- and post-activitie
• Provide connections to other subject areas
• Provide a family science activity for each child

Choose the program that best fits your educational needs.

Electrical Energy: Jolts and Volts
Grades 4-7; Physical Science
Electrify your classroom! Students observe static electricity up close with the help of a powerful Van de Graaf generator. Students are challenged to transform energy to create circuits with a variety of unusual equipment. This program will get you and your students charged up!

Matter Explorations
Grades 1-7
Using super-cold liquid nitrogen, household items and hands-on experimentation, your students learn how and why things change state. Students will identify the properties of these states of matter, broaden their conceptual understanding, and develop a better sense of the physical world around them.

Light and Sight
Grades 4-7
Models are everywhere in science. Your students will create and use models illustrating how light travels and how the eye works. Stations devoted to exploring the primary colors of light and reflections with a mathematical twist will have your students actively engaged in the study of light.

Investigations in Weathering, Erosion and Deposition
Grades 3-7
This interactive program will help students build a conceptual understanding of Earth processes. Students will explore and identify the processes of weathering and erosion, observe erosion patterns, and identify patterns of deposition.
