Pershing Mural Curriculum Available Online

September 17 - December 20

The Pershing Mural Curriculum Committee has created an academic curriculum in the areas of art, art history, language arts, history, and historic preservation using the Pershing Mural mosaic as a focus. The lesson plans and accompanying teaching materials contain Nebraska Standards, Learning Objectives, Direct Learning, Guided and Independent Practice, and Evaluation Standards that are written for the sixth-grade level but could be adapted for higher or lower grade levels. The curriculum is freely available for download on the Nebraska State Historical Society Foundation website at https://www.nshsf.org/projects/pershing-mural-curriculum/.

While this HN calendar listing is applicable to the fall semester 2024, the materials will remain available indefinitely.
