EVENT
Waterworks Preschool Summer Series
Water and the Three States of Matter
July 30, 2020
10:00–10:45
It’s once again time for our Preschool Summer Series! This year, since the museum will not be able to open for visitors until at least the end of June, we will be running several sessions of our preschool series online through the Zoom platform.
Join the Metropolitan Waterworks Museum’s education staff to learn about water and the three states of matter!
First, we will read from Change it! Solids, Liquids, Gases and You! Then, we will learn how molecules act in each state with a movement-based game. Finally, we will create paintings with ice cubes! Recommended for ages 3–6. You can purchase a $4 ticket for this session at: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/waterworks-museum-preschool-summer-series-water-and-the-3-states-of-matter-tickets-111169434772
Given the virtual nature of these fun and hands-on educational STEM programs, participants will need to assemble some materials from home to fully experience each program. Check the description of the program before signing up to make sure you have everything you need! Once you have purchased a ticket, you will be sent a link to access the session through Zoom and any materials that need to be printed at home.
If you have any questions about the Preschool Summer Series, please feel free to email our education manager Tracy at tracy.lindboe@waterworksmuseum.org.
Current Exhibit
Moving Water: From Ancient Innovations to Modern Challenges
Ancient civilizations engineered water systems that sustained communities for thousands of years. This exhibition spotlights six places that innovated ways to deliver, and control water for human use. It also looks at how climate change is impacting all of those places, forcing public officials to consider new ways to keep the water flowing.
