The Mississippi Museum of Natural Science is truly an off-site, living classroom and should be considered a very important part of your curriculum. A variety of programs are offered from classification to food chains to fossils.
Hands-on presentations are available to groups of seven or more people. Presentations are correlated to the state science curriculum objectives and are both content and grade appropriate. Museum programs may include hands-on activities, observation of live and mounted specimens and videos. Program topics available during a Museum visit include:
