Teacher Resources
If you're an educator, look no further for helpful resources, such as our Educators Guide, a handy tool with information about tours, workshops, in-class presentations and more. You'll also find curricula to tie into our current exhibit about George Washington Carver; there's one set for preschool and one for elementary grades. And if you want more information about our free, twice-monthly preschool program, check out this link for Learning Safari. You can even take your class on a scavenger hunt through our Museum website!
