Kids as Curators.
Monhardt, Rebecca M.; Monhardt, Leigh
Science and Children, v35 n1 p28-32,80 Sep 1997
Describes how to build a classroom museum developed by students to provide an ongoing learning experience. Offers tips on generating ideas through class discussion, assigning facilitating roles associated with museums, developing exhibits, including interpretation, and sharing the museum with others. Students who have created their own museum become critical observers of community museums which makes field trips more meaningful. (PVD)
