COSI (Center of Science and Industry) brought its traveling program Exploring Ecology on Nov. 14. This interactive program stimulates the imaginations of the next generation of scientists.
Exploring Ecology is one of six traveling science outreach programs from COSI- one of the nation’s leading science centers.
The day began with a 45-minute interactive assembly introducing the students to ecology, habitats, ecosystems, and adaptations. This fun, educational assembly was followed by hands-on activities during which the students investigated an ecosystem, examined tree rings and explored animal adaptations.
This COSI On Wheels program aligns with the Ohio Academic Content Standards and compliments the National Science Education Standards to deliver an amazing science learning experience directly to the school.
COSI is a hands-on science center located in Columbus, Ohio. Each year more than 300,000 students take part in COSI On Wheels programs, and in the past 30 years, COSI On Wheels has brought hands-on science into the lives of over 7.5 million students across the Midwest.
Exploring Ecology is made possible through the support of the Ohio Environmental Education Fund
