CONNECT

We know field trips are tough to plan these days. Instead, connect with one of our many state historic sites or the Indiana State Museum through a free, 30-minute live virtual broadcast. Through pre-recorded videos and/or photos of exhibits, artifacts or outdoor spaces, a staff member will present and highlight key components from their location. These programs align with Indiana Academic Standards.

Programs include an educator guide and classroom resources for hands-on learning in your classroom or at home. Each program is designed for a classroom of 25-30 students and aligned to Indiana Academic Standards.
