Dear parents of students in 2nd grade,
Exciting news – we are heading to the Charleston Museum on a field study trip!
Field Study Date: April 22, 2025
Class: Science/Spanish
Lead teachers: Diana Cuellar & Mana Tian
We will attend the following programs:
Oceans in Motion – Dive into learning about life in oceans through hands-on investigations of our preserved marine life collection. Students learn all about the diverse life in the sea including gastropods, bivalves, echinoderms, sharks, and other ocean dwellers. This class also includes a marine life rubbing activity.
Shake, Rattle, and Roll – Natural Disasters: Shake, rattle, and roll as you learn all about natural disasters in the Lowcountry. During this interactive class, students will use household materials to construct a building that can withstand an earthquake, experiment with twister bottles to see how a tornado forms, and study the Halsey map to see what types of natural disasters Charleston has survived during its history.
General Scavenger Hunt – This exploration includes questions for each of our exhibit galleries.
