The museum's new traveling education kit for schools about the
Industrial Revolution is in the test phase during the spring and fall of 2007,
with production of the final version and launch anticipated for early 2008. The kit is designed for grades 7-12.
Challenge students to study the material world around them, to discover how innovation and hard work transformed a farm and forest-based economy into a world of factories, machines, and mass-produced consumer goods. Much of this transformation originated in New England, in towns and villages where you can still see the evidence of early factories and mills, and where you can study local community records to find out what life was like during early years of industrialization. The Industrial Revolution kit includes artifacts, photos, primary source documents, activities, resource books, CDs, a video, and lesson plans. A teacher's guide explains how to use the kit and provides a key to difficulty level for the readings and activities. Click here to view or download PDF brochure |
