Living With Water

Living With Water is a place-based environmental education experience tailored for children in third grade. This program connects the exhibits at the Louisiana Children’s Museum with a scalable curriculum advancing water literacy by highlighting the ecosystem services provided by wetlands and explaining the science behind the varied innovative adaptations that humans and animals have employed to help them survive in wet environments. This program offers resources for a turn-key classroom curriculum meeting fifteen 3rd grade Next Generation Science Standards, as well as a kit for a self-guided experience for museum visitors between 3rd and 6th grade, and a mobile exhibit encapsulating the LCM experience, Steward’s Ship. This vessel guides elementary aged students in learning about the ways plants, animals, and humans have adapted to thrive in the volatile wetlands of South Louisiana.
