Homeschool Program: Wonderful World of Military Airplanes (Virginia Beach)
April 14, 2023 @ 10:00 am - 2:00 pm
This STEM-focused program examines Military Aircraft of the WWII-era as case studies of a problem solving framework we can all use today! With each airplane designed to accomplish, and overcome a specific problem, they are great examples of flexible thinking and provide students an introduction into the fascinating world of engineering. In addition to an in depth examination of the aircraft in the collection, students will design their own camouflage, build and paint a wooden plane model, create a pinwheel propeller, and sit in the cockpit of one of the warbirds. ​
Explore science, history and aviation as part of a small group of students during one of our Homeschool Days. Our Homeschool Day programs are held throughout the school year, and are a great opportunity to get your homeschoolers out for an exciting trip to the Museum. The programs are designed to enrich the education being provided at home, by offering the students educational experiences and experiments you might not have the ability to do in the home.
Homeschool Days are drop-off programs, from 10:00am – 2:00pm. Pre-registration is required and attendance is capped at 15 participants. Lunch is not provided, and we do ask that all students be dropped off with a packed lunch. There is no on-site cafe option at the Museum.
Age 5 – 9
