Outreach Programs

Are you interested in one of our classes but are unable to bring your class to the museum? Let us come to you! Kingman Museum offers several different outreach classes. We’ll bring hands-on materials for your group to investigate and explore. If your class is focusing on something not featured in our Outreach Programs but you would still like the museum to visit let us know! We’ll help create the perfect Outreach Program for your class using museum resources and materials.

Outreach Program Cost: $125 for groups up to 35 people. $3/person after 35

K-2 Outreach Classes

My Earth
Get your hands dirty and explore our amazing planet Earth! Take a closer look at rocks, sand, soil, and water.

Digging for Dinosaurs
Apatosaurus, T.Rex, and Stegosaurus…oh my! Become a paleontologist and examine museum fossils while exploring the life of a dinosaur.

3-5 Outreach Classes

Animal Adaptations
Could a Polar Bear live in the desert? Could a fish live in a tree? Check out museum animals and find out how animals adapt to their environments in order to survive.

The Age of Dinosaurs
Long necks, sharp claws, plates, spikes, and more! Dinosaurs came in all shapes and sizes and lived in a world much different than our own. Study fossils and go back in time to explore the age of dinosaurs!

The Ice Ages
Giant sheets of ice once covered Michigan while Wooly Mammoths and Saber Tooth Cats roamed the land. Explore life on a very cold Earth in the Ice Ages!

6-8 Outreach Classes

Pre-Historic Past
From huge oceans to giant sheets of ice, dinosaurs to mammoths, and hot to cold, our Earth has gone through many changes. Examine how these changes happen and step into the pre-historic past!

9-12 Outreach Classes

Earth History
The Earth has a history full of fire, ice, eruptions, and impacts. The face of the Earth has changed many times, so have the living things calling it home. Take a closer look at the major events in Earth’s history and examine rocks and fossils that help us tell this amazing story.

Extinctions
How does something become extinct? Examine the major extinctions and compare their causes and effects. Find out which animals survived and which animals weren’t so lucky. Look at fossils and rocks as keys to understanding extinctions.

All classes are aligned with current Michigan GLCE requirements. To see class alignments download our 2011 Education Catalog.
