Homeschool Academy: The Museum Classroom
The Magic of Flight
Homeschool Academy: The Museum Classroom is a new program targeting the interests of homeschool families ages 5 to 18. The Magic of Flight will take place at the National Naval Aviation Museum on 28 October from 9:30 am to noon in the Blue Angels Atrium.
Check-in: 9:30 am.
Event begins: 9:45 am.
We will be joined by the West Florida Homeschool Education Band and Strings for a special performance for this event!
The Magic of Flight will feature hands-on activities reinforcing the four forces of flight: lift, thrust, drag, and weight. The session will also include a specialized age-appropriate tour of the museum that will highlight the physics of flight. After the event, families are encouraged to tour the museum or participate in special Flight Adventure Deck Tours, focusing on the science of flight.
