Explore with your students themes of daily life, agriculture, teamwork, and technology on a field trip to America’s first Shaker settlement, or with an outreach program in your classroom.  Our history programs:
 
  • can help students meet the New York State learning standards for social studies education. 
 
  • appeal to multiple learning styles through hands-on participation, inquiry-discussion, and sensory stimulation.
Teachers may choose from three exciting programs that encourage students’ awareness of Shaker traditions of respect, tolerance, and diversity.
   
 
  Shaker Learning Fair (Grade 4, On-Site)
