Facilitated, focused, hands-on learning experiences for school groups aligned to Skyline scope and sequence and designed to Next Generation Science Standards and Common Core Literacy Standards.

Led by a Griffin Museum of Science and Industry educator, Learning Labs connect with classroom curricula and are designed to promote practical, applicable, and accessible knowledge of science and engineering principles; an awareness of everyday science phenomena in students’ lives; and insight into STEAM career pathways.

We can accommodate most students with special needs such as learning ability, language or physical ability.

Let the Museum come to you! We are proud to bring hands-on, standards-based science programs right to your school, library, community center, etc. Museum educators will bring the materials and facilitate a 45-60 minute learning lab in your space for up to 35 learners.
