On Saturday, September 28, our Washington, DC museum will co-host our eighth annual Indigenous Peoples’ Day Curriculum Teach-In with our partners Teaching for Change. Participants can select two workshop breakout sessions. Each session provides resource-rich experiences, such as classroom lessons about Native peoples and topics; resources from both partners; and strategies for effectively incorporating the museum’s exhibitions in Washington, DC, into classroom curricula. Not able to join us in-person? Save the date for our virtual Teach-In on Saturday, November 2.
On Saturday, October 5, our New York museum will host a Native New York: Educators’ Open House. Earn CTLE credits and a certificate of participation by attending and learning about the peoples and themes featured in the “Native New York” exhibition through NK360° classroom resources, gallery tours, film, photography, beading, and other guided experiences.
Visit NK360° anytime to find classroom-ready resources and standards-based lessons about topics such as the impact of the Gold Rush on California Natives, food sovereignty, and Thanksgiving.
