Welcome, teachers! As a fellow educator, I understand the importance of finding historically accurate and educationally enriching activities and supplemental materials. I also know how challenging it can be to actually track down information, particularly when it comes to the topic of Native Americans in general, but specifically Connecticut's local Indigenous Peoples. To that end, the IAIS Education Department has been closely involved with the development of this website to ensure that it will be a valuable tool for today's classrooms. Our Exhibits and Collections pages, especially are laden with a wealth of information that can be incorporated into your lessons.
Additionally, this page, designed specifically for teachers and students, will be an ever-growing compendium of useful resources. Feel free to use any material found on this page or anywhere else on the site, knowing that the information is as complete and accurate as current knowledge and research allow. We will strive to continue to post new materials as time goes on, so check back often!
