Curriculum Materials

The only curriculum materials that we have available to date are the activity packets that we send out to our elementary school teachers who come for spring field trips. 

We are happy to share these activity packets.  You may find activities that would be of use in your classroom.

Sweep through History (5-6) contains activites related to westward expansion and the Civil War as they pertain to Fort Scott.
Montgomery's Raid on Fort Scott  

Did You Know?
Politics made strange bedfellows. John Little, a proslavery man, was shot to death at his father's store, by free state men who raided Fort Scott in December 1858. A friend, George Crawford, a free state man, was staying with Little that night. Crawford had once been the target of proslavery men.
