The Houston Museum of Natural Science is making a major change to its weekly schedule by moving its free hours to Tuesdays from Thursdays starting Jan. 16.

General admission tickets will be free between the hours of 5 p.m. and 8 p.m. on Tuesdays all year long.

"We wanted to allow more families the ability to experience HMNS together," museum president Joel Bartsch said in an email. "We not only extended our hours into the evening to give working parents and individuals the time to come in after a long work day, but we also moved it to Tuesdays to allow for better access, easier parking and fewer conflicts with neighboring events in the area."

Free admission hours on Thursdays is a common theme for museums in the city. The Buffalo Soldiers National Museum, Children's Museum of Houston, The Health Museum, The Holocaust Museum Houston, Museum of Fine Arts, Houston and The Houston Museum of African American Culture all have free admission hours each Thursday.

Free weekly hours is one of the museum's longest-running programs, Bartsch said, dating back at least 25 years.

Prior to this move to Tuesdays, the museum offered free hours on Thursdays from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. in the summer and 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. the rest of the year. The free hours at night, which started only recently, were such a success that the museum wanted to make it a year-round option.

Bartsch said he and his team have been listening to feedback from visitors about improving the HMNS experience, and the museum identified Tuesday as a potentially better fit for free admission hours for visitors. They first started considering the logistics of moving in October.

The president of the museum since 2004, Bartsch said he hopes the move will make the museum more accessible to people hoping to visit.

"We think that people in Houston and beyond will be pleased with this change because it reflects on who we are and our mission to make science education accessible to all," Bartsch said. "We strive to bring a world-class science institution to the city, not only in the exhibitions and programming that we offer, but also in our operations and visitor experience, and we're positive that this will be an even more accessible way for our guests to enjoy the Houston Museum of Natural Science."

Combine information from the text with what they already know to make inferences, or smart guesses, about the text.

Remind students that authors don’t always state everything directly in a text. Readers use clues from the text plus their background knowledge to make a smart guess about something that is not stated in the text.

An example of a real-world situations and then make an infer. For example: The teacher gave Carlos his test results. Carlos smiled and started jumping for joy. What can you infer? Discuss the text clues and background knowledge used to make the inference.

Focus on the Comparison/Contrast structure. Read the Purpose section.

Review that transition words can provide clues about the structure of a text. Read the transition words for a comparison/contrast structure.

Authors use specific text structures in order to make their ideas clear. The text structure can show the author’s purpose for writing the text. For example, if an author’s purpose is to inform readers about how dolphins and whales are alike and different, he or she will use a comparison/contrast structure.

Explain that if the author doesn’t state the main idea in a sentence, readers have to infer, or figure out, what the main idea is. Point out the text clues that can help readers determine the main idea of a text.

Authors include details, or supporting evidence, to tell more about the main idea.

You can find the main idea of the whole text or just of sections of the text.
