Nebraska Comes AliveNebraska History is a large part of the fourth grade curriculum in Social Studies. The Nebraska State Historical Society plays an integral part of what we have studied, as after we have discussed the Native American tribes, the explorers of our great state and country, the soddy built in pioneer times, the General Store, clothes and toys from that era, the railroads playing such an important part in our growth, and then World War II, it is SO important to actually see all of this, what we have been discussing in class. Then there is the State Capitol! Everything there: the beautiful mosaics that portray our history, the busts of our noable Nebraskans, our prestigious Unicameral, the doors to the East Chambers, the court chambers...needs to be seen by our students. The No Child Left Behind Act wants to make sure that all students learn what they need to learn auditorally, kinesthetically, and visually. This museum and the capitol brings history to life! Many of our students have not been to these two places and we do not want them to miss out on a wonderful experience! Deadline: 6/1/2006 Discipline Area(s):
