Field Trips: Discovery Lessons

Participate in an in-depth investigation of the natural sciences. Through these interactive classroom experiences, your students will develop important scientific skills, from making observations to designing experiments and interpreting data.

All lessons have been developed to meet Educational Standards, including National Benchmarks for Science Literacy, New Jersey Core Curriculum, Pennsylvania Academic Standards for Science & Technology, and for Environment & Ecology, and Philadelphia Core Curriculum Grade Levels.

We offer a variety of Discovery Lessons for grades Pre-K–2, 3–6, 7–9, and 10-12. We are also offering a Guided Tour for Grades 7–12 of the special exhibit “Hadrosaurus: The Dinosaur that Changed the World.”

The Academy of Natural Sciences is an approved entity for the School District of Philadelphia. The paperwork is on file with the School District of Philadelphia Risk Management Office.
