In 2nd Grade, students will:

-Investigate environmental plant needs, seed dispersal, pollination, habitats, and biodiversity.

-Study Earth events (slow and quick), erosion design solutions, mapping land and water on earth.

Starlab

(Indoor Program)

Description: 

Learning about science through our inflatable, portable planetarium will bring plenty of “oohs” and “ahs.” More than that, it will inspire your students to engage in a better understanding of the world around them.

In the dome, you can travel through a world of knowledge that includes astronomy, geology, physical geography, and more. With StarLab, educators can be confident the curriculum meets current Next Generation Science Standards.

Nature Walk

(Outdoor Program)

Description: 

Students will get a chance to experience an outdoor space to notice nature and increase observation skills. They will be presented with an opportunity and task to identify various items in nature and make connections with the environment that surrounds them.
