The Franklin Institute has developed a program just for you. Workshops and Series in Physics, Astronomy, Earth Science, and Meteorology are now available at the Institute for children ages 7-18. A Workshop is a three-hour question and answer period with one of the museum's scientists. This is conducted for children 14-18 years of age.
Series focus on the lab portion of the topic.
Why, who, and how are the main questions answered through experimental science in these Homeschool programs. Designed to reach children at all skill levels, the goal of the Homeschool Series is to give children a hands-on science learning experience. The curriculum for this program is founded on the National Science Education Standards. Activities are designed to meet the Standards for each of the topics and are specific for different educational levels. To advance the child's learning, attendees receive a portfolio to develop and take home to continue their studies.
