Field Trips & Educators

The Science Museum is known for promoting active, "hands-on" inquiry in science. Mathematics can also involve active questioning, constructing, manipulation of objects, and experimenting. Try multisensory active math in Math Moves! Engage your students in curriculum-related, exhibit-based learning, integrating the motivation and energy of free-choice investigation, the fun of discovery and personal meaning-making. Enacting math can be a powerful tool for exploration and understanding.
