PASSPORTS ARE PERFECT FOR YOUR VIRTUAL CLASSROOM
Passports include all of the materials that you will need to conduct science demonstrations for your students. The artifacts can be used to create power points, the books can be read aloud, and students can experience an interactive, object based learning experience that fulfills your Science and Social Studies standards.
Go to https://www.memphismuseums.org/pink-palace-museum/programs/passport-program/ for a table of contents, curriculum standards, and inventory of materials for each suitcase topic.
Call 901-636-2362 to reserve for your library or classroom.
Passports are available for $10 to use in your classroom for 2 weeks.
