Virtual Field Trips

Sharing the Lessons of World War II with Classrooms Across the Country

The National WWII Museum offers the following interactive, fast-paced interactive lessons that are videoconferenced LIVE into classrooms across the country. Guided by a museum educator, students analyze maps, photographs, artifacts, posters, speeches, and songs as they explore the chronologies, strategies, motivations, and outcomes behind these fascinating chapters of WWII history. All sessions are built to invite student participation and allow for a Q & A at the end. 

These virtual field trips are not virtual tours of the museum. 

Virtual Field Trips are $100 per session.

Virtual Field Trips are typically held between 7:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m. CT. If you need to book outside of those hours  or would like to book multiple / consecutive Virtual Field Trips please email the distance learning team.
