The Every Student Initiative educator guides match Peoria Public School District’s curriculum to the Peoria Riverfront Museum’s exhibits, Dome Planetarium shows, and Giant Screen Theater educational films. While they are specific to our 2018-2019 exhibition schedule and intended to be used for focused field trips, any group can use the ESI educator guides.
Additional resources listed underneath the Peoria Riverfront Museum's visit materials are provided by WTVP and their new educator resource, PBSlearningmedia.org.
