TEACHER RESOURCE GUIDES

This set of 12 teacher resource guides serves as the most comprehensive resource manual to the Bermuda National Trust historic houses, cemeteries and nature reserves. It is designed to inspire teachers to enhance their students’ learning through informal engaged experiences outside the classroom. Each guide is filled with fascinating background information and lists activities which are linked to the curriculum laid out by the Bermuda Ministry of Education’s Social Studies and Cambridge International Science Curriculum. The guides were launched on April 24th 2015 (see article in Royal Gazette).
