An artist rendition of the Pershing Mural as it may look when installed in Wyuka Cemetery, with the words "Pershing Mural - Curriculum" superimposed.
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.
