Dear Educators,
The 2010-2011 school year is in full swing and changes are happening at Kingman Museum and Leila Arboretum. We have merged our unique education facilities to offer more programming, events, and resources for educators and students. New classes are now available and are aligned with the current Grade Level Content Expectations and High School Content Expectations.
The Always Evolving NEW Kingman Museum celebrated the Grand Opening of the newly completed Mezzanine level in September. Take a walk through Michigan habitats, discover the world of Edward Brigham, get an up-close look at how the human body works, and see exotic animals and insects of the world. New classes are also available! Explore the past, present, and future with activities investigating dinosaurs, outer space, and our own planet Earth.
Leila Arboretum’s Children’s Garden is now offering classes for K-6! Through hands-on activities and getting their hands a little dirty, students will take a closer look at how plants grow, adapt, and evolve. Classes are available May though the end of October. The last week of April is Arbor Week and many events will be happening at the Children’s Garden. Special discounted classes are available during this week.
Want to take a class at Kingman and at Leila Arboretum? Now save $10 when you schedule a class at both facilities for the same day! Are you focusing on insects in your class? Let us know how we can focus a class on your special classroom needs. We are here to help you “build your own class” using our unique resources available to your students.
