What Are Museum Learning
Links?

Museum Learning Links are newly developed Science Museum of
Virginia materials that are correlated with the Virginia S.O.L.s.
·
The links offer teachers and students a well-planned museum visit
that includes hands-on learning and classroom activities to reinforce the museum
experience.
·
Materials are available for the following grade levels: K–2,
3–4, 5–6, Middle School and High School.
Museum Learning Link Format
·
Grades K–2 and 3–4: Materials include chaperone-led
visits with questions and answers for the chaperones to ask at grade-appropriate
exhibits and in-class activities for teacher use.
·
Grades 5–6 and Middle School: Materials consist of
scavenger hunts that students complete in groups while visiting the museum and
follow-up classroom projects.
· High School: Materials include student projects on specific
science topics. Students complete questions using museum exhibits and other
resources. Students use this information to conduct an experiment or design a
product that will be used to teach others about the topic.
