Lew is Launching into School!

Even though Lew Wallace hated school as a child, he’s getting ready to launch back into the classroom – but this time as the teacher. The Lew Wallace Discovery Kit has been finished by intern Rachael Matthews and is reserved for a visit at St. Bernard’s School in just over a week. We’re wrapping up the final inventory and packing the kit…making sure all the parts are in place for the students. This Discovery Kit is the second in the series, but like the first Wallace Women Discovery Kit, this one has touchable artifacts from our Education Collection, games, and a binder full of activities and lessons for the teacher to incorporate into curriculum. This kit is fit for a variety of ages, and the maiden voyage is to become a station in a kindergarten class. There’s so much great stuff in here, I couldn’t resist trying some of it on!
