Take a break from your regular routine and treat your students to an educational escapade at The Powerhouse. Witness their fascination and enjoyment as they delve into the captivating world of science, adding an enriching dimension to their in-class learning. Our STEAM lessons align with Colorado and Durango academic standards and can be tailored to suit a wide range of learning objectives.
We welcome any group of school-aged children who wish to explore our exhibits. Whether you have a small or large group, we can tailor the experience accordingly. Please fill out our Field Trip Request Form or contact Hannah Lewis for more information: hannah@powsci.org.
5th Day Programs
5th Day Programs offered by The Powerhouse provide valuable opportunities for children who have Fridays off from school to continue their learning journey. Programs teach lessons from our STEAM Lesson Catalog in Ignacio, Mancos, Dolores, and Pagosa Springs.
We’ll bring a hands-on learning experience to your classroom. The cost is $150/hour plus mileage. Please contact us for more information. We look forward to working with your students!
STEAM Roller Outreach
Bring The Powerhouse to you with a STEAM Roller visit! For $150 per hour, we can bring hands-on learning to you. We have more than 30 standards-based STEAM lessons covering subjects as intriguing as paleontology and mystery substances. Each session includes core concepts such as literacy, data collection, model building, experimental design, and observational skills. Some even foster a “tinker” mindset.
Check out the STEAM Lesson Catalog to see what we can offer your kids. Note that a few “big-wow” lessons require additional charges to cover supplies and transportation. Fill out our Interest Form and we’ll get back to you to start planning the excitement!
