Making the Revolution Relevant (Virtual)

This workshop is open to educators for professional development purposes. Do you know an educator who might be interested? Please share this opportunity with them!

We can all agree that the American Revolution is important for students to learn about, but how do we make the events and ideas of two centuries ago feel relevant to their lives today? Using the Museum’s Virtual Museum Tour as a core resource, and drawing on current events, participants in this workshop will examine real and replica artifacts and images, analyze primary sources, and engage in discussion with their peers and Museum staff to come up with classroom-focused ideas for meaningfully tying the Revolution to the present day.
