Westbury Lab Teachers

2009-01-14T10:33:00.000-06:00

The Maritime Museum visited our campus to present for our 5th grade students. Students learned about the influence of maritime history and the marine industry with focus on the development of Houston, the Texas Gulf Coast, and the State of Texas. The museum brought artifacts and students learned about marine instruments.

To support HISD’s initiative of a college-bound culture, our 5th graders went to HBU to experience a real college setting. While there, they studied: the water cycle, natural resources, soil, and erosion and landforms. They were guided by college students in real college classrooms on the HBU campus.
