A Gallery Walk is an activity in which your students will examine museum-like exhibits that you place around the classroom in order to complete their assignment. It is a fun way to present the information and it gets your class up and moving in an organized way- a fun break from lecture! All Museum Exhibits and corresponding student sheets are included in this product! Includes teacher key, student questions and an exit card activity! FUN!!

OPTIONAL BONUS ACTIVITY (Included): To add a fun twist, during the gallery walk activity your students will be also tasked with helping Indiana Jones journey through Life in the 50's (trivia) in search of the missing crystal skull!
