Early America History – 1600s
Do you live outside New England? Is the distance from your school to Plymouth too far for your students to travel for a Field Trip? Why not invite Plimoth Plantation to come to you for a Long-Distance Classroom Visit? (Long-distance programs are for school visits which would require travel by air, or exceed a three-hour drive from Plymouth, MA.)
Regardless of how far away your school is, Plimoth Plantation’s Education Department can visit your classroom! We’ve traveled as far as California, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Georgia, and Alaska; we’d love to visit you, too. During the visit the Museum teacher will provide a one-hour program per classroom with either a Colonial or Wampanoag(Native) focus. Appropriate programs are available for students Pre-K through Grade 12.
Many schools are able to make these educational programs very reasonable by inviting other local schools to sponsor a day of visits to their school. This enables you to share the transportation costs.
If you have questions or would like to discuss available dates for programs in your area, please call (508) 746-1622 ext. 8359 or email programs@plimoth.org, or make an online reservation request.
