Wonder of Wonders (WOW) + All About HIV
Specially-trained health science educators utilize three-dimensional models and audiovisual materials to convey important, accurate and age-appropriate information about puberty, reproduction, the development of new life and the facts about HIV. 24 school districts used WOW to supplement their health education programs in 2005-2006.
Tracing Traits
This hands-on workshop explores the genetic and environmental influences that determine who you are. The roles of DNA, chromosomes and genes are presented in a fun, interactive format.
Carnegie Science Center offers free previews of WOW + All About HIV throughout the school year. Interested teachers and parents are invited to preview the program so they can be aware of how sexuality and reproduction will be presented to their children and classrooms. Previews end with a question-and-answer session. No reservations are required. All previews begin at 7 pm at Carnegie Science Center.
