Traveling Trunk

The Traveling Trunk is a work in progress based on the Archaeological Dig. The trunk was developed through a grant from the Montana Archaeological Society and circulated to educators via the Hands on History Footlocker program of the Montana Historical Society. Thanks to Debbie Mueller, Mitzi Rossillon, and others for creating this treasure.

School Programs

Donna Kenney at Head Start is spearheading programming for kids that focuses on different cultures. The Mai Wah’s Dori Skrukrud read them a story about “how chopsticks were invented” and did a little training in their use. The following day they had a cooking class where they made won tons and stir fry. Donna says, “They still talk about the little dragon, Dori’s dragon hand puppet. Many of the teachers have the pencil “chop sticks” in their skills area of the classroom.” The program reached more than 150 students.
