Bring the North Carolina Museum of History to your classroom!

Through our innovative History-In-a-Box Kits (HIBK), educators access fresh and fun approaches to topics in history. These multidisciplinary teaching tools provide you with background materials, lessons, and activities that connect North Carolina history with language arts, science, math, and visual art.
