Kentucky is special and stands out in so many ways – including its people, geography, and culture, not to mention its water. Join us for a very special homeschool day offered in partnership with Louisville Water Company to explore the Commonwealth’s many unique features. Families will have the opportunity to work on an investigation guide in the museum galleries, enjoy hands-on craft and activity tables, try their hand at Kentucky quiz questions on the museum's big screens, and the option to view one of two live presentations offered in the museum theatre titled “Boats vs Planes: KY History!”.
Class Sessions: Each family also has the option to sign up in advance for one 35-minute classroom lesson run by a Frazier Museum or Louisville Water educator at no extra charge. Spaces will be selected in advance after registration and choices will include:
Water Filtration - During this engaging, hands-on session students will discover the purpose of a filter and how it relates to the work Louisville Water does to provide clean water to the community. They will work in teams to construct and test their own filters using household materials. (Designed for 3rd - 12th, but all ages are welcome) (Offered from 10:30 - 11:05 and 11:30 - 12:05)
Properties of Water - Students will discover the unique properties of water while reinforcing the meaning of the word “properties” as it relates to science. Through hands-on experiments, they’ll learn things like water is sticky, can magnify, and has the ability to stretch. (Designed for K - 4th, but all ages are welcome) (Offered from 12:30 - 1:05 and 1:30 - 2:05)
This program is drop-in style so feel free to come by any time that works best for your family. Families are welcome to bring a snack or sack lunch to enjoy in the museum’s lunchroom or Gateway Garden.
