Museum Field Trips for Schools
Developed in collaboration with classroom teachers, field trips align with state learning standards and allow young people to learn through multiple approaches, including hands-on activities, role-playing, and cooperative learning. Programs feature a visit to a Historic New England site in the Boston area, as well as extensive pre-visit and follow-up resources to expand the field trip into a unit of study.
