Residencies

If your class wants more hands-on time with our unique materials and activities, museum educators can build on an assembly experience with additional in-depth residency lessons. We’ll bring the teacher, the tools, the expertise, and the plan. You provide the classroom and the students. Together, we’ll make a great science learning team!
