Thank you to the San Diego Foundation Weingart - Price Fund for their sponsorship of the Exhibit Gallery Facilitator program. Facilitators will be present during your field trip to help chaperones and teachers work with their students. They will also be helping your school group check-in with short orientation talks after your group arrives. Our Exhibit Galleries are a playground for the mind, and are very successful at inspiring students who may not have prior interest in science. However, our Galleries do not work when approached with reckless and chaotic roughhousing.
Curiosity is the most powerful tool a student can bring to our galleries.
Chaperones Make the Difference Assign chaperones to specific students before your class arrives. Let BOTH the chaperones and the students know that they will be a team for the duration of the field trip and will stay in the same room together at all times. We offer pre-visit tours for teachers and chaperones on the second Monday of each month. Please mention your interest in this tour when making your reservation.
