Program Descriptions
Grades K-2: Animal Adaptation
During this museum-educator-led program, students will compare animal specimens (标本) from our collections to discover how different adaptations help animals live on rather than die out. Students will explore the different kinds of adaptations for animals that live on land, water, and in the air.
Grades 3-6: Insect Survival (存活)
During this staff-led program, students explore what makes an insect an insect, and why they are so successful (insects have more kinds and live in more places than any other animal!). Students will research into the survival skills of the Carolina Sphinx Moth and the Tobacco Homworm, exploring their adaptations using the scientific skill of observation.
Grades 6-12: Hot Potato: Climate Change, Food Systems, and You
During this staff-led program, students will examine the connections between their lives and climate change through the study of food. This online program offers an opportunity to explore agricultural systems and learn about how climate change affects potato growth. Together we will learn how scientists study food as a valuable but limited natural resource, and explore some solutions to keeping it a long-term one for humans.
