If you've ever wondered what it feels like to be a scientist, come visit the Lawrence Hall of Science. You'll not only find out what scientists do- you'll actually do it yourself! Here visitors of all ages have fun exploring science by doing science.
LHS features interactive exhibits on topics ranging from dinosaurs to space travel, what's below the earth to what's above it, how your brain works, and why it works that way, and many more intriguing topics. Weekend programs include special events, interactive planetarium shows, a biology laboratory filled with gentle animals, and evening stargazing.
Lawrence Hall of Science (LHS) is also a dynamic center for teacher education, research, and curriculum development in pre K-12 science and math education.
LHS helps students reach and exceed national standards and benchmarks for science and math education. Professional development programs for teachers and administrators feature scientific investigations and mathematical problems that build critical thinking skills; interactive curricula on key topics; and activities that enable all educators--regardless of background or training--to successfully bring activity-based, inquiry-driven learning to students. LHS emphasizes ongoing professional development that supports long-term instructional improvements at our partner schools. |
