Linking Classroom Learning with Unique Hands-On Experiences

Through hands-on lab projects and conceptual immersion with our exhibits, your students will be inspired to think like inventors as they apply these core science concepts:

  • Pillars of Science - Exploring core content that correlates with CPALMS and NGSS standards.
  • Invention - Learning through the lens of invention and innovation, while exploring the lives of visionaries whose inventions have changed our world and continue to improve it.
  • Exploration - Sparking creativity through hands-on projects and lasting “Make and Takes”

The Cade Museum for Creativity and Invention provides you and your students with unprecedented access to world-class inventors, entrepreneurs, and visionaries.

We believe that every student has the innate ability to become a future inventor, so our Field Trips spark wonder and link school-based learning with the world that surrounds each child. Field Trips are designed to complement your curriculum, and diverse themes enable you to bring your students back to the Cade again and again for continually layered educational experiences.
