Education Materials

The museum's Education Department has created a comprehensive set of teaching materials for use in the classroom or home school. The materials may be used in conjunction with field trips to The Mark Twain House or to enhance students' understanding of Twain in the classroom.

Developed with the assistance of teachers, the lesson plans fulfill the Connecticut Frameworks curriculum standards for social studies and language arts in grades 3 through 5.

The $14 kit includes lesson plans, worksheet masters, flashcards, color illustrations and access to our teachers' online forum.
