It serves as the official archives of the state and is responsible for collecting and preserving the source materials of the history of Arkansas. The Arkansas History Commission (AHC) has two options for 4th- 12th grade students visiting through the Arkansas Heritage Field Trip Travel Grant: • Research Expedition: Students conduct research on a pre- selected topic (an Arkansas person, place or event, for example). AHC staff will work with the teacher prior to the field trip to identify topics in advance, to conduct preliminary research on the topic at school using secondary resources like encyclopedias, and to identify questions for students to answer during the research visit. Students will be divided into smaller groups to work on their research assignments, with individual staff members assisting each team.* Program Length: Up to 3 hours Appropriate for Grades: 5-12 *Note to teachers: This activity may work well for students working on National History Day projects. • AHC Site Tour: Students will tour the AHC, where they will view some of the archive’s unique, historic documents, photographs and artifacts, interpreted by staff members. The AHC holds the largest collection of archival materials on Arkansas, reflecting the history of the region from the early 1800s to the present day. Tours can potentially be tailored to suit individual interests of groups. Program Length: Up to 2 hours Appropriate for Grades: K-12 Additional Information About Your Visit: Bus Parking: Bus parking is available in the public
