Inspiring California Students to Protect Our Most Precious Resource

Water Wise Explorers

Water Wise Explorers brings Discovery Cube’s signature hands-on approach to science directly to your students, whether we’re visiting your school in person or connecting with your classroom virtually.

  • FREE Water Education Programs for Grades K–6! Made possible through the generous support of Golden State Water.
  • Schedule Your FREE Water Wise Explorers Program today.
  • Space is limited and eligibility requirements apply.

This FREE, NGSS-aligned water education program engages students in grades K–6 through interactive science experiences designed specifically for their grade level. Through storytelling, demonstrations, games, movement, problem-solving, and hands-on activities, students discover where our water comes from, how it reaches our communities, why protecting our water supply matters, and how they can become part of the solution.

Choose Your Location. We’ll Bring the Experience to You!

Water Wise Explorers is designed to reach students throughout Golden State Water’s service areas through both in-person and virtual programming.

And virtual doesn’t mean students just sit and watch.

Discovery Cube will ship a Water Wise Explorers activity kit directly to your school! Materials are designed to extend the experience beyond the screen and may be used for hands-on participation during the live program or as a follow-up classroom activity.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answer:

FREE for Eligible Schools through the generous support of Golden State Water

  • NGSS-Aligned: Grade-level programs support NGSS concepts related to Earth systems, Earth’s resources, human impacts, environmental sustainability, and engineering solutions.
  • Interactive, Not Just Informational: Students don’t simply listen to a presentation. They move, predict, vote, investigate, role-play, problem-solve, and participate throughout the experience.
  • Designed for Each Grade Band: Water Wise Explorers isn’t a one-size-fits-all presentation. Three distinct programs provide developmentally appropriate experiences for K–2, 3–4, and 5–6 students.
  • Relevant to California: Students connect science to the water systems and environmental challenges affecting the communities where they live.
  • Hands-On Virtual Learning: Schools participating virtually receive an activity kit, giving students an opportunity to participate in hands-on science during or following their Discovery Cube experience.
  • Inspires Action: Students leave knowing that they have a role to play. From turning off a faucet to understanding how communities capture and reuse water, Water Wise Explorers turns scientific understanding into environmental stewardship.
