The Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) outline the core science and engineering principles for students and teachers across Illinois public and private schools. Our hands-on workshops correlate to NGSS learning objectives across all offered ages, making our field trips valuable educational experiences year-round for any curriculum. Below is a list of our Guided Programs and the standards codes that are met in each lesson.
