外展 & 项目

Our education team strives to educate student’s understanding about water through engaging and informative programs, supplemental materials, 研讨会, 实地考察旅行, teacher in-services and classroom presentations geared from pre-K to college level.

“We need to educate, inform and inspire young people to accept the challenge of making water solutions that are all around us work.”

—Metropolitan Board Chair Adàn Ortega, Jr.

我们提供什么

School Presentations

The education team offers a custom water-education presentation or “H2O Show” for students from pre-K to college. 这些独特的, interdisciplinary, hands-on learning opportunities cover California’s water sources, 供应, 分布, 质量, 使用, 保护, and current water challenges. Concepts are taught through experiments, group activities, discussions, videos, games and songs.

Scout 项目 Grades K-12

Workshops are offered for the Boy Scouts of America Soil and Water 保护 Merit Badge. The workshop mixes of discussion and hands-on learning to satisfy the seven required badge elements. For scouts who have not yet earned merit badges, our 教育 Team can create an in-person or online presentation about water 保护 or other water topics. Our Girl Scout Protector Patch Program is currently paused.

实地考察旅行

Unique field trip opportunities are available for teachers and students within Metropolitan’s Southern California service area. 实地考察旅行 are offered at no cost and correlate to various California Content Standards, including Common Core and Next Generation Science Standards.

Teacher Workshops

Our education team is available to come to your faculty meeting to present grade-appropriate programs and materials. We will create an effective presentation with unique interdisciplinary, hands-on learning activities appropriate for all grade levels. Presentations include an overview of Metropolitan and our curriculum offerings and program activities. The amount of time required for in-service, workshop and staff development sessions vary, but will generally range from 30 minutes to about two hours.
