The National Constitution Center offers a free 30-minute virtual learning experience called Civic Stories geared toward elementary and middle school students. This program helps students develop a deeper understanding of history and consider the ways in which artifacts humanize history through the individuals, communities, and cultures they represent. In this professional learning session, teachers will have the opportunity to engage with the past through artifacts and the stories they tell as the NCC models what the program would look like in their classrooms and explore ways to build storytelling into their curriculum.
