Utah Museum of Natural History from the University of Utah - Museum on the Move brings authentic experiences in natural history directly to the 4th grade classroom. The Museum facilitator sets the stage for students to work as teams of scientists on challenges that allow them to ask their own questions, make and record observations and inferences, and draw their own conclusions.
MoM uses highly engaging Museum specimens and practices inquiry-based instruction. MoM is made available to all public schools within the state of Utah at no charge. Funding is provided by the Utah State Legislature and by the Utah State Office of Education's Informal Science Education Enhancement (iSEE) fund. They taught us about Fossils: Evidence of Utah's Past!
Thanks to all those who help provide this service to our classes!
