INSIDE Eisenhower Presidential Museum Renovations Underway Meredith’s Memo After weeks of carefully removing artifacts from exhibit cases and completely emptying the classroom cabinets, construction has officially commenced at the Eisenhower Special Recognition Presidential Museum. This renovation project is a grassroots effort that is being funded through donations to the Eisenhower Foundation’s Dwight D. Eisenhower: A Legacy of Celebrating our Heroes Leadership Capital Campaign. As U.S. Senator Jerry Moran remarked in a recent letter of support, “The Foundation’s Our Partners vision, as laid out in its ‘A Legacy of Leadership’ Campaign, will ensure the Museum’s vitality well into the 21st century.” With a fundraising goal of $11.75 million, the Did You Know? Campaign is near completion and the Eisenhower Foundation is grateful to the individuals, foundations, and corporations that have made this project a reality. IKEducation In May, the Dane G. Hansen Foundation joined the President’s Club — an exclusive History for the Future list of lead donors, that includes the Hall Family Foundation, the William T. Kemper Foundation, and the Sunderland Foundation — with a second major grant to the Upcoming Events Campaign. In addition, gifts made by the DeBruce Foundation and the Walter S. and Evan C. Jones Testamentary Trust, Bank of America, N.A., Trustee, both in the First Spotlight Event Family Club, have enabled the project to stay on the current timeline that allows the Museum to reopen in time for the 75th Anniversary of D-Day — June 6, 2019.

  • Introduction
    INTRODUCTION This study guide is designed for teachers as a companion to the Pepsi Edition of the documentary Eyes on the Prize. Divided into eight segments, the Pepsi Edition is two hours long, considerably shorter than the original version of Eyes on the Prize. The teacher, using this guide with the Pepsi Edition, can present to students a balanced rendering of the major events of the civil rights movement between the landmark years 1954 and 1965. The first section of the study guide is devoted to what came before the advent of the modern civil rights movement, from the landing of the first slaves in Louisiana to the entrenchment of Jim Crow in the South. The subsequent sections of the guide, with three case studies, are devoted to the eight segments of the documentary Eyes on the Prize. Each of the eight sections includes: Synopsis Chronology Glossary Quotes Questions Two copies of Glossary, Quotes, and Questions appear in each section. One copy, with the list of questions, is to be copied and handed out to the students. The second copy, with the list of questions and (suggested) answers, is for the teachers. The Quotes and Questions often touch on the same points, and it is best to select Quotes for one segment of the documentary and Questions for another, etc. The events described in Eyes on the Prize are recent history. To be sure, we live in the aftermath of a political revolution that has no equal. But if Jim Crow is dead, his legacy lingers. I was reminded of this in February 1994.

  • Elementary Catalog 2020 Inspire Teachers and Learners with Outstanding Books
    Elementary Catalog 2020 Inspire Teachers and Learners with Outstanding Books BOARD BOOKS LEVELED READERS SOCIO-EMOTIONAL LEARNING INCLUSIVE TEXTS STEAM NONFICTION FICTION AWARD WINNERS Dear Educators, When a catalog that lists books arrives in my mailbox, I stop everything and browse excitedly through the pages! I can’t resist the pull of learning about books that I can order for my students. The catalog you’re holding now, filled with page after page of outstanding books, from the Penguin Random House family of publishers was developed especially to support you and the children you teach! If you’re like me, you’ll want to choose books for your class library and guided reading groups that focus on students’ interests. Remember to reserve time to include your students in the book selection process. Take a few minutes and ask them to turn-and-talk to a partner about books they’d love to see in their classroom. Then, have students jot on a piece of notebook paper the topics they’re curious about, authors they love, series they want to read, and favorite genres. Adding books students suggest to your classroom collections honors them as readers and shows how much you value and respect their input. The more books your students read and enjoy, the more they’ll improve. Volume and choice in reading matters! Happy reading! Laura Robb EDUCATOR, AUTHOR, AND LITERACY SPECIALIST A classroom teacher for more than 43 years, Laura is the author of more than thirty books on Literacy and the new “Let’s Work Together Teaching Guide” series from Penguin Random House Education.
