Lesson Plans & Activities

Welcome to the Lessons & Activities page. Here's where you'll find Lessons & Activities, activity sheets, and long and short curricular units for use in elementary or middle-school classrooms and preschool settings.

All the curricular materials included here have been developed at the Boston Children's Museum by Museum educators or by teachers collaborating with the Education Department in our workshops, seminars or institutes. The materials fall within the three main subject areas represented in the Museum's exhibits and programming: Arts, Sciences and Cultures. All units and Lessons & Activities have been aligned with Massachusetts and National curriculum frameworks, most of the lessons come with recommendations of resources for further exploration within the Museum, as well as referrals to sources outside the Museum.

We also have bibliographies which expand on these topics:
