Student-Focused Tours
We're confident that our tours will augment your social studies curriculum, while assisting you in meeting the State Social Studies Content Standards.
1. Student tours have been enhanced to include a more hands-on approach to history. Since young guests will be involved with recently acquired demonstration items and reproductions, they will be interacting with history, rather than just hearing about it.
2. Special attention has been paid to the State Social Studies Standards. Hands-on experiences have been specifically planned to provide added exposure to the knowledge and skills outlined in these standards.
3. Pre and Post-Visit Activities are provided. Teachers can get ideas for introducing their students to the knowledge areas they'll be exploring prior to a visit, as well as ideas for involving students in review and extension activities afterwards.

It includes historical information, along with a variety of student activities and cross-curriculum projects, which may be presented in your classroom or provided for students to complete at home.

We have a Traveling Trunk to enhance
