Museum Hosts New Teachers

On Tuesday, August 21 the Museum held its annual luncheon for new King and Queen County teachers and their mentors. On behalf of the Museum Council educator Linda Barnes welcomed the 30 attendees and noted how the Museum can supplement their classes. She wished them a successful year of teaching and learning and provided them with a “Teachers First Aid Kit.” The items included were Candy (peppermint because you are worth ‘a mint’ to us and strawberry because you are so ‘berry’ happy you are here), a Band-aid to cover the ‘wounds’ of the day, a marble so you will never lose your last one, a Straw so you will always have a spare, a Rubber Band so you can always keep yourself together, a Paper Clip to use if the rubber band breaks, a Dime so you will have money until payday.
