Curriculum Materials
Each year more and more teachers are interested in using Minuteman Missile National Historic Site as a tool to help their students understand the Cold War and its influence on American History.
The Minuteman Missile Teaching With Historic Places Lesson Plan was designed to meet the South Dakota state curriculum standards, which are based on the National standards. Teachers will find several activities to help their students learn about the Cold War, the beginning of the missile age and the coming of the Minuteman system to the Great Plains.
We invite you to adapt each lesson to serve your needs and inspire students to learn about the Cold War - the major international event of the last half of the 20th century.
