Weis Earth Science Museum - UW Oshkosh

The Weis Earth Science Museum, located at the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh, serves as a vital educational resource focused on earth sciences. The museum is distinguished for its interactive exhibits where visitors can engage in activities such as simulating earthquakes, exploring a mine tunnel, participating in a quarry blast, and even touching dinosaur models. This makes it an excellent resource for homeschoolers interested in active and hands-on learning experiences, particularly in the fields of geology and earth sciences. Its mission is to both preserve Wisconsin's unique geological heritage and emphasize the critical importance of earth sciences.
