OMSI for homeschoolers O MS I f o r Home s ch oolers Struggling to teach science at home? Let OMSI educators take your homeschool science to the next level. With OMSI, students get to work with materials and equipment that may not be readily available at home. Homeschool Program Options: • Book a Field Trip and receive discounted group rates with a group of 12 or more homeschoolers, by forming your own group or joining a pre-existing group (ask us for contact information). Keep in mind that memberships cannot be combined with group rates and reservations must be made in advance. Program options include museum admission, reserved labs, stage programs, planetarium shows, OMNIMAX films and submarine tours. See pp. 6–26 for details. • Improve your science teaching skills by participating in one of our Teacher Professional Development Workshops. See p. 5 for details. • Book one of our Traveling Assemblies or Classroom Programs for your homeschool community. If you don’t have a usable space, we can host the programs at the museum. See pp. 32-42 for details. • Take your homeschool group (12 or more) to Outdoor Science School for a one-of-a-kind learning opportunity. See pp. 28–30 for details. • Bring your family or your homeschool group (minimum: 2 students and 1 adult) to OMSI for a Submarine Camp-In to learn about density and buoyancy, and experience what it’s like to live on a submarine. See p. 27 for details. • Attend our Teacher Open House to preview our fall exhibits and learn more about our programs. Teachers only, please. See p. 4 for details. • Register your child for one of our Science Classes (5-day programs in summer, 1-day programs on school holidays) or Lab Experiences (1-hour programs on weekends throughout the year).
