Description of Use and Application
Water on Wheels (WOW) is the cornerstone education program at CAESER. WOW is a mobile water science museum that comes straight schools at a fraction of the cost and time. The exhibits are colorful and interactive, designed to enlighten and motivate visitors. Students learn about the water cycle, conservation, watersheds, our drinking water supply, water use around the world, stormwater systems and more. The WOW visits 4th grade students during the school day. The WOW is parked outside of the school and each classroom (maximum of 6 per day) spends approximately one hour with the WOW and CAESER educators, rotating throughout the day.
