Objectives:
• To demonstrate the integration of social studies, science, math, and ELA as it relates to the Patriots Point Naval and Maritime Museum’s collection in alignment with South Carolina College and Career-Ready Standards
• To demonstrate WWII as an entry point into exploration of cross-curricular concepts
• To demonstrate the value of community institutions to classroom learning
Patriots Point Naval and Maritime Museum’s Education Department, along with its curatorial staff, has created a suite of sessions, activities, and interactive tours with the Museum’s Collection to highlight connections to in-classroom learning across disciplines based on South Carolina State Standards. Creative connections to the classroom will leave educators “Ready for Take-Off!” with plenty of material to take back to their students, while also demonstrating the value of informal learning institutions in the community. This immersive, overnight experience is free** and includes meals and lodging aboard the USS Yorktown. Participants will receive a certificate of completion. Download the event synopsis here.
