Art and science are at the foundation of the Water Rocks program. Incorporating music, video, visual arts, movement and dance, the educators from Water Rocks grab the attention of young learners and help cement STEM lessons in their minds and, hopefully, their lives.
During the pandemic, many programs have successfully moved online or outdoors, and some exciting new virtual programs have been launched as well. Among them is the Water Rocks Spoken Earth virtual program for secondary students being readied for school groups in January.
