The Science Museum isn't just for field trips anymore.  Though we do have a couple of grade levels that will visit during the year, our biggest connection is through their outreach programs.  Each year they visit and do a combination of large group and small group hands-on labs.  Each one ties into the grade levels curriculum and enhances the lessons they have experienced.  Topics we have learned about are Archeology, Water Cycle, Ground Water, Electricity and Magnetism, and Weather!
