Thinking Thursday: "Groundbreakers" Crossword Puzzle Tutorial

Here at the museum, we strive to create exhibits that spark your interests and make you want to learn more. While we love putting up new exhibits, it’s always bittersweet to take an exhibit down. With technology, we are now able to make virtual/online exhibits out of the exhibits we take down. Not only does this allow us to share our work electronically, but it also allows us to share our exhibits and research with you regardless of where you are located on the planet!

For this Thinking Thursday, we’re posting a crossword puzzle that helps you explore our “Groundbreakers” online exhibit. This is great for anyone from middle schoolers to adults, and is a great way to explore or revisit a favorite exhibit of our patrons. Teachers – this is also a great activity to use in the classroom. Just use the print button located under the instructions OR have your students complete the puzzle and turn in a screenshot for a grade!
