Water is essential for life and is all around us! In our water education program, students connect with their nearby water bodies by investigating the properties of water, the movement of water, and aquatic ecosystems. Program may be adapted to focus on stormwater, topography, or a creek day. (ESS2, ESS3, LS1)

In our energy education program, students discover the sources, forms, and flow of energy all around! Our primary energy program invites students to observe and measure the effects of the sun, wind, and water on our planet. Students in intermediate grades examine benefits and constraints of energy sources, energy transfer, and electricity. Lessons support NGSS standards ESS1, ESS3, and PS3.

Students investigate the roles, structures, and needs of local plants and animals, and their interdependent relationships within our ecosystems. Lessons support NGSS standards ESS3, LS1, LS2 and LS3.

How do human activities impact Earth’s resources and environments? Students examine the roles of landfills, recycling, and household hazardous waste disposal as they consider the relationships between humans and natural resources. Lessons support NGSS standard ESS3.

This program currently available for classes in Lincoln County and Garrard County.
