Familiarize yourself with Montshire Museum http://montshire.org/
INQUIRE with the students in your group what they learn, discover, and encourage the scientific focus of the year - questioning! Allow the children to explore, discover, and wonder about the exhibits.
STAY with your group the whole time as you explore the grounds
Visit the trails first, then the indoor exhibits, and water park at the end
Other visitors and exhibits need to be treated with respect. Help children remember this and encourage taking turns, walking while inside, and appropriate C.A.R.E.S. Behavior
Choose a good time to eat lunch for your group - the Hughes Pavilion provides a covered eating area outside. Do NOT eat in the indoor exhibit areas!
Directions: The Montshire is conveniently located just off Interstate 91 at Exit 13 (look for the “Museum of Science” signs) in Norwich, Vermont, five miles north of White River Junction. The Museum is directly across the Connecticut River from Hanover, New Hampshire, home of Dartmouth College.
