Learning in Your Classroom

Building on what teachers and students love about in-person visits to our museums and historic sites, these interactive programs will bring creativity, critical thinking, and empowered storytelling into your classroom. Each program is designed to work as a stand-alone program, paired with other in-school programs, or as a complement to an in-person field trip
