EDUCATION & TOURS
The Education Section of the University of Colorado Museum of Natural History offers a varied selection of object-based museum programs for students, teachers, and families. Our programs are:
- Fun, interactive, hands-on, and designed to encourage thinking skills and learning from objects.
- Age-appropriate and developed to address state and local curriculum standards, when applicable.
- Interdisciplinary, covering science, reading, writing, visual arts, geography, and history.
- Designed to enhance student understanding of exhibits and related concepts.
Museum field trip opportunities include hands-on guided programs, hands-on workshops, and self-guided visits. If you are interested in classroom resources, we also rent outreach material to bring the museum objects into your classroom. Teachers are encouraged to visit our teacher resources page to find upcoming pre- and post-visit materials and links to other resources on the UC-Boulder campus.
