Lesson Plans
The Star of the Republic Museum has created
lesson plans to enhance your students' understanding of Texas
History. Whether or not your class is able to visit the
Museum, these lessons will enrich the classroom experience by
making objects from the museum accessible to students.
Based upon artifacts in the exhibits or primary
documents from the museum collection, these lesson plans can be
adapted to different grade levels, depending on the teacher's
needs. All of the lesson plans are aligned with the TEKS
(Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills) and are intended to supplement
the core curriculum.
Some of these lesson plans contain items in
Adobe Acrobat PDF format. You will need the Adobe Acrobat Reader
to view and print these items. Acrobat Reader may be obtained
from the Adobe
Web Site.
