Teacher Tuesday – Decomposers

Tuesday, Mar. 1, 2016

05:00 PM
US/Central

Participants can get down and dirty with soil and decomposers as we explore the benefits that these little noticed workers contribute to the environment.

About the Class

During ExxonMobil Teacher Tuesdays, educators can discover a new world of science as they go behind the scenes with HMNS curators and staff in these exciting interactive workshops. These programs are for adults only.

With new topics each month we can provide educators with ideas and activities to bring their classrooms to life! Inspired by the runaway success of the Museum’s Xplorations summer camps and school-year science labs, these workshops give the HMNS teaching staff an opportunity to share what they do best! Register soon as these workshops have a tendency to sell out!

Select Tuesdays (5-8pm), $30 - Dinner Included + 3 Hours CPE Credit
