Lesson Plans - Overview

In 2014, Laura Pratt, Elementary Education M.A. History Center Graduate Assistant, reviewed and updated the lesson plans. Drawing from the plans created by the previous educational partners, she streamlined and condensed these materials to make them more useful to teachers in the classroom. The resources now focus on grades 2-5 and 6-8, English Language Arts and Social Studies.
