LINCOLN, Neb. – Educators of younger students are invited to participate in a citizen science workshop Nov. 19 in Hastings. The workshop will be held at the Hastings Museum, 1330 N. Burlington Ave.

Participants will receive an introduction to citizen science, guidance to incorporate activities in the classroom, activities and resources.

This free workshop is for educators of students in early elementary to middle school and after-school providers. To register, contact Jamie Bachmann at Jamie.bachmann@nebraska.gov or 402-370-3374.
