The Education Department has a wide variety of materials available
to assist teachers in preparing students for a Museum visit. Our educational
materials are designed to support and supplement school curricula.
A range of age-appropriate materials can be sent to you prior to your visit for your use in preparing curriculum for your classroom. Student workbooks are also available for most tours.
We invite educators to utilize our new Resource Center, which houses interactive, slide, and text materials as well as a film and video collection that can be previewed at built-in screening stations for use in our classrooms.
